I'll take some more pics of cooler, Its off a new seado i got from work. fits perfect and plenty of room.
the new setup will be EFI, custom manifolds to suit etc etc, going to run it on just methanol
as i don't street it at all, looking at a turbo like yours maybe alittle big bigger
will be running behind a built jatco i have with transbrake etc

you may want to put a heat shield between the exhaust manifold and the inlet or it will eventually warp the carburettor body to the point that it will jam the throttle I had mine rebuilt/repaired a number of times before it was stuffed.That is why I removed it,only a suggestion.

Hoping the hpc coating and e85 will help it cool it down alittle :D but yeah have made a heat shield for it so i'll see how it goes before i put it on.
