Todays work then..... front mount fitting
Decided to modify my crash bar to allow better flow, no point it being blocked off, and the bar has retained its strength as ive only cut a window out
comparison
in bits...
GTF sidemount
and on
and modified bumper
Plate will hide the holes day to day but good to take off for track etc for better cooling.
Drove home and car induction sounds deeper, seems to pull better lower down in higher gears but is probably just my imagination. Lag over old shitmount is minimal, 500revs tops id say, overall very impressed with the quality. Full turbo back system next, then hybrid turbo then put all my other goodies on and get it mapped

i can always do that at a later date. wanted to try this way first, i think the other way is too obvious. plus the plate this way can retain its standard position

I did try, not as easy as said to be honest, plus im not really bothered as it'll be hidden 99% of the time
