Default Suppose that would cause any issues with pressure build up on the turbo?

Moving it that much farther away may cause a split second delay on release of pressure from the turbo end of things and cause turbo "flutter"? Probably not I suppose as the wastegate handles that.......

Just thinking "out loud"....... and out of my ***......

Default Dont think it would cause "flutter" maybe a seconf of "stall"...which is bad news.

I like the idea of the relocation...just want other opinions first. I have seen it done before.

Same idea, bad anyway. Just run without a hood like the Honda boyz. Mad powa and easy to work on.

Default LOL...I thought you means a DV flutter...too little spring tension.

i need to experiment with the relocation more....i love it on the TT.
