    Very nice. No problems getting 300hp with a GTX turbo, looks big too! GTX30?? If I can offer a word of advice regarding your clamps. The one keeping the hose onto the throttle body might not hold. I found Tee clamps blew off worse than all the others I tried haha. In the end I used a Norma Torro clamp there

    It's a GTX2971R (5002 with 52mm turbine exducer). The clamp on the throttle body is not too great but it does hold, no probs up to 1,8 bar (that's my overboost protection limit )

    I's a nice setup...but I'd sooner use good quality stainless worm drive clamps, than those big ugly industrial/exhaust clamps which in applications like this....tend to allow leaks everywhere
