Default Any pics of GT28RS intake setup?

Just wondering if any gt28rs owners have their DIY intake setup for the turbo?

do you have an intake to feed the cone filter? That setup looks way worse than stock. The manifold is on that side and that's a big heat pool you created for the filter to sit in

Well, the ASP setup is nice, but they don't sell it seperately from the turbo kit.

Keep the pics coming~

Running your silicone intake that close to the exhaust manifold is a disaster waiting to happen..I can't imagine how hot that air is being moved through there as well.

I would fix that ASAP.

was that directed to me? ive been running this set up for over 8k miles now. its fine.

yeah its hot air by the cone but nothing a heatshield cant fix i just havnt felt like dealing with it. and the silicone gets no where near hot enough or close enough to exhaust manifold for a "disaster to happen"

Here's my setup...but I'm having a big heating issue with my turbo frying my coil pack lines. Also seeing significant coil pack failure. Does anyone have the same problem>?
