That looks incredible. Did you have to move your battery? Which side is your battery and boxed pod filter on? There is so much going on in there I can't quite tell! Thank you so much for the list, it certainly gives me a much better idea of what is required of a turbo setup. Did you go and take that picture just to answer my question? If so double thanks!  Best of luck on your 600hp setup, mate. What do you think you will need to install, upgrade/replace to get that kind of power? Thanks, mate.

If so, what colour is it and what type of paint did you use? It looks great! I haven't seen paint like that before. I didn't know you could get such a smooth and reflective finish when the rocker cover seems to have a kind of rough surface.

Thanks for taking that photo for me. I thought I was crazy when I couldn't see your battery anywhere. Now I know why! What gauge wire did you have to run from the boot to the engine bay to power your starter, etc? 0 Gauge at a guess?Also, what is your PCV hose going into?

Is it fed back into the intake manifold at all? Or is it just pumping out into open air? Don't worry, I'm not the EPA.  Thanks, mate.

A catch can can suck back into the air intake . Mine doesn't . As my car is a track car . It catches all the crap that would normally sit in the bottom of ya bbm . Blowby etc .

Oh, so it just prevents oil and gunk from your crankcase from entering your intake manifold and being burned? Thanks for the info, mate!
