TAKING ORDERS for winter 2017 turbo kits

Aside from clearance with the Intake Filter & Steering Rack, I can't see there being any other issues.

Been collecting a lot of photos about this for a while. These are the best two so far that give the best idea of clearance, the third is from the last time I changed my clutch. I've rotated them to make more sense. In the event the Intake Filter doesn't clear, surely there are options for shorter Filters that would clear that bit on the Steering Rack...

That picture of the turbo and engine outside of the bay is mine, if you need any more of them let me know and I will see what I got. BTW almost 2 years on the BP kit now and love it!

Thank you very much then. Your photos were what finally made me pull the trigger, and yeah mate whatever other photos you got of the area that give an idea of filter clearance would be appreciated!

Good luck MoulaZ! That filter is gonna be a bitch. The thing about it that lets it fit even in our space is the 20 degree angle. It runs into things if it's not angled in the up position. I'm stoked to see what solution you come up with. It's been bothering me so much lately that I've considered the what if's of the HKS mushroom and even filter screens. I think the HKS would sit too close to the turbo and be subject to heat and the filter screen....well it's a screen. I tried a K&N compact 4" but the lower angle still stuck too far and was obstructed. The only other option I can see is fabbing some type of flat box element that would house a good flat filter shaped like a dryer vent.( that's because I don't see 4" aluminum piping fitting to the fenderwell or snaking to the front of the car.) Those were just some of my brainstorms. Keep us posted when you start the build thread.

I agree. Need to find a better solution for the filter. I’m thinking about trying the hks mushroom of death as well. Just need something with better clearance
