^^ lol, see my previous post about my setup

This is EXACTLY what I've tried explaining to people lol!! I've got a larger SMIC instead of FMIC and most people are like 'thats pointless get an FMIC' :roll: I'll bet I can still make over 180bhp on it.

I still don't get the turbo thing though, OK it'll produce LESS heat, but surely still hotter than ambient temp so you'd still want an IC, albeit a smaller one. :think:

Its still at the front and its still in the air flow, it should work perfectly fine IMO,

Turbo's don't really make much heat until they get out of their efficiency range and then it ramps up fairly quickly! the HDi doesn't have any I/C as standard remember as the turbo is well within range!
