I've spoken to the guy about making one for a 93 wrx. He said he's happy to do it but would ideally need a donar car to test it on. He's asking how many people would be interested in one for the 93 wrx (an other cars who've got the 90 degree turbo)

cheers

As an Engineer, I am concerned that - far from giving the cone a cool environment - it is actually making it sit in a hot pocket where heat cannot escape. Heat will rise into the area the cone sits.

However, as a nice shiny thing for under the bonnet it looks excellent!

Not true, some are front entry turbos which take a different route, if you look at the pic of the one hes selling it wont fit cars with top entry turbos.

I would have to agree with pissyLewis on this one, crappy design.

But nice and shiny
