turbo or intercooler????

if turbo there's not many reason...

1)due to space constrain (most top mount because turbo manifold a.k.a banana need smooth bend so it tends to take whatever space left....and leaving turbo to be mounted on top....

2)easier to remove turbo for service/repair compared to bottom mount....

i think thats all...maybe other ppl can add??? :adore:
