Ph1 Estate. Gearbox mounted vnt

[RetroPug]

That is a seriously nice looking front end!

What splitter have you got on? Looks great and fitment looks good too. I've been wondering what would fit a Ph.1

[ash23]

cheers mate the splitter is a mk1 laguna one not the normal one everyone uses think it looks the best for the ph1 bumper

[Piggy]

nice! well done matey! Given me inspiration for my now grotty gearbox!

Don't be a doosh though, please record in landscape in the future??

Well, until we suddenly start using portrait TVs anyway

[ash23]

Haha it was the correct way until YouTube flipped it ?maybe if clicked the wrong things lol

Gt a few things to do before FCS

get boost pipe clamps
make down pipe
Fix starting issue  possibly ingres 

[daniel909]

Love the look of this done a great job

[mr_fish]

f**k the downpipe...I would be sooo tempted to drash it up the road as you had it in the video

top work!

[ash23]

It came very close to ripping the bonnet off and taking it for a spin. But I'm lazy lol I'd have had to jack it back up to do the down pipe

[ash23]

I think where the air filter it's now I'm thinking there won't be enough cold air /flow around it now. I was thinking  of some kind of duct /vent but ebay brings loads up has any one got any sujestions on a nice looking ones to do the job?

Was thinking just above the head light?

Get a snorkel like this and a 90deg bend perhaps?

One way of drying your clothes.

Ash what about the vent that pellow had on his estate, I quite liked that.

[Chris_90]

Morettes with inner lamp out and air filter stuck out of it

[ash23]

I have the stock snorkel  thing but that on its own isn't going to give enough  air flow tbh was thinking perhaps one of these to keep it standard looking?

Kent what  needs did he have fitted to that I can't remember now?

Chris No just NO they look wank on ph1 lol

Or on of these above the filter?

So I didn't make FCS had family issues that took priority over building the car up / a car shoe. But today I finished it was only a hours work if that to get it done will post some piks later but for now just a quick video with the rest of the exhaust system make and connected

P.s sounds better in person; )

just a few piks of clearances quite tight down there but still enough room for a second turbo I recon.

Nimrods or the spa's?

[Ben]

I'd say the Spa's suit it better, that'd be my choice

[Jamieh2013]

This car is just awesome!

Nimrods for sure though... What's it go like with the gearbox mounted turbo on?  

[Piggy]

I am going to be fitting a NACA duct in my new bonnet Ash, google them. Pretty cheap and DESIGNED to draw air in

I like the spas!

[7057sam]

Nimrods FTW

Great project got so much love for this

[welshpug]

standard snorkel will be more than enough, another alternative if you haven't abs is to cut a hole under the filter and feed a hose to it from behind the fog lamp aperture.
