Remove bov and block holes. Then buy a turbo side air intake kit. Buy a good brand name one like Plazmaman, Process West, Nizpro and maybe one of them will be able to post it to you in Fiji?If BA/BF..I think you can buy a under battery pod kit; otherwise may have to buy turbo side + battery relocation kitGood luck!

barnz Member 3,047 Member For: 10y 5m Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 10/12/14 01:15 AM Share Posted 10/12/14 01:15 AM It is actually marginally quicker in a circuit or drag situation. Particularly in a manual, less loss of boost on a change or even a 1-2psi spike. There is a reason WRC cars dont run them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might make me use less go pedal to get the noise and save fuel. I suspect I'd get tired of flutter even at moderate throttle lift off though. When you're passing that cop car you do not want to sound off! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
