its good moving it there isnt it
intercooler should be fine, i just got a citroen xantia td one which im gonna try and fit
you may need to make some new end caps, but other than that, aslong as it will physically fit then all is good.

when i sed ive moved my filter onto my turbo i meant its only 4inch away from it i removed all the steel piping so now my filter is rite next to the turbo,the fiter gets wicked air flow,ive got a seprate tank for the breather to collect that little bit of excess oil
shud be fitting the intercooler this thursday,shud be a laugh getting it to fit,ave u got that dump valve running yet?i heard about the amal sensor thing

i'm also thinking of doin this, but the turbo on mine is right under the car
Not only will the air coming in be really hot, but the tyres kick up all sorts of shit + rain water, which wudnt be good.

ah, it is vital that the oil breather goes back into the induction on turbo cars, it stops the turbo rusting up, i would ditch your tank and plumb the breather back in asap.
