Thanks guys, should of just asked in the first place

I'm going to ask a rediculous question. What do you mean by 4" intake.. Not a pod?

As I understand it a turbo side intake is a pod connected to a pipe that goes into the turbo.. Can you explain te different options ?

Cheers in advance

Yep correct. 4inch size tube from pod to turbo. The pod used on the stainless kit is farking huge lol. Length is as long as a forearm I've been told.

Don't think you can run a turbo side intake without tune but henz should be able to confirm true or not

Like I said dave8888, if you have an fg, contact stainonegger. Member on here that makes the kits that I said before ^

Sounds good ace, look forward to some pics if you get it done. Don't think anyone's been able to put it on drivers side but maybe with your plastic weld skills you can pull it off!

Only thing is getting it to fit the factory piping, near impossible by the looks of it. Rapid has a stand alone kit with a hotside pipe that solves the problem or you could make your own to fit a stainless one.

Ace I thought of trying to move the airbox over too, bit of research found the the ve v6 one looks to be a much better fit just with some trimming to the bottom. Could be worth a look?

thanks dillz might have a look at that - got a free morning tomorrow might rip the battery out and do a test fit. was thinking of using the top of the box and build a whole new bottom. wonder if the corrogated pipe would be good enough to put in right near the turbo just to get it up and running.

That's what you would have to do to make it fit but still don't think the top would. If you can pull it off it's worth it because it means you can still run a big cooler and be legal.
