Hello Louis

Where are you measuring your inlet air temps?
Sorry, I maybe should have read through the other pages!

Hello Louis

Would you recommend fitting an IAT sensor in the cold start injector location?

I would also be interested in what kit you are using.

Thanks.

Stephen

Interesting feedback from your bonnet intake mod. Have you ever considered fitting a CS/RC bonnet? It's designed to create a low pressure area above the bonnet opening thereby extracting hot aire from behind the radiator and the area around the turbo.

That's the tricky part, especially getting the height right!

Hi,

the best place is in the upper hose of the radiator, looks like you have to sort out a new package of radiator & intercooler hoses

you definetely should consider to turn the compressor housing down, so you can save death volumina & space

HI Sunny :) i dont think there is room to clock the turbo compressor as the 52mm rad takes up a lot of room,
