Default Front mount fitting with aps wing mount induction

ive viewed a few guides on fitting a front mount but i have a aps wing mount im guessing this will interfere with the fitting is there a way around, a different route so to speak

'aps front mount' ???
if it's an air filter in the front wing then you can flip the intercooler and run the pipes under the headlights, so they dont go thru the wings. abit of chopping and cutting involved, but all the best mods involve an angle grinder!

I use to run a hybrid fmic and APS inner wing kit. Inter cooler was fitted standard way. Only needed to mod the fmic pipe from turbo to wing.

Okay cheers guys im dreading taking the front end off and being landed with one hell of a job, ive been in 2 minds to do it or not for this fact would i have much of a power gain as im not really running much power to put the top mount out of a job?

It has a zero sports inlet (front entry turbo not sure on the number spools about 2.5 k)
Aps wing mount induction kit
Adjustable fuel pressure reg set at 2.5 bar this has the regulator blanking peice aswell
Boost set to 15psi
5zigen 3" from cat back

Bear in mind its only a turbo 2000 so its not going to be drasicly jaw dropping hp

Apart from a legnum vr-4 this is pretty much my first tubo car that ive owned, ive read about issuses with raised boost and the up pipe cat still being in and causing trouble im guessing this means it collapsing and royaly feking the turbo dont really want this as its had a engine rebuild and a new turbo
