ill give u pics when i get my car back... and measurements and stuff,

have u got a lift kit in ur car?

untill then http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/justintwo/my_photos there are soem pics in there of it

also found out that he standard headders do a really good job and it is not worth going bigger with out loosing a heap of torque

Yeah no lift.

Im just after pics so i can get an idea of how to mount it and what looks the best.

I like your snorkel

You mean exhaust headers? What have you got on there now?

Gannon, Get a couple of mandrel bends from an exhaust shop to use for pipework then build the fitment around that, far easier than going fitment then pipework.

Thanks

I like this one, looks almost stock

Mine is like the one in the pic, doesnt have a BOV. Where can i mount one (prolly a stock RS or wrx one)

Thanks for the input

DO make sure it is a plumb back style BOV (stock RS or similar) otherwise you will get backfiring when you come off the throttle, as the ECU thinks heaps of air is still making it to the engine and will enrichen the mix accordingly.

Plumb a line from just after the cooler back to near the turbo inlet, then run the vacuum actuator from the manifold (after the throttle body).
