shorter intecooler pipes
i know i'm a newbi here
but i was thinking if i did rotate the turbo cw like in that pic
the pipe going from the turbo to the intercooler will b shorter since i have a front mount intercooler with the inlet and outlet at one side
what do u ppl think !?

Good point. That would seem to lengthn it wouldn't it? Unless I'm totally missing the concept......again. BTW, did you want to talk to me?

Re: shorter intecooler pipes
How would that work though? Then the air intake side would be opposite it needs to be. It'd be great it you didn't want an intercooler and run straight to the intake manifold. That's the only way I see it working and at that no intercooler just isn't cool.

it would be easier to make a dp and less pipe towards the intercooler
the only thing is the wastegate might hit the block
