FMIC pipe run

[jambo_gtir]

I have finaly installed my FMIC i got off Bob 8) took me a while as I'm crap at things like this but once my angle grinder was fired up I was getting in to it quite well.
Question is, the boost pipe is very close to the manifold is that a problem?

Also, I need to buy some mesh to cover it up as I think it looks a bit cack like it is now?

The silicon elbow will probably get brittle and split from the heat eventually, I know as its happened to me ;-)

When I get round to changing my turbo I'm going to spin the compressor housing and get the intercooler pipe down out of the way.

I would have either lagged the manifold or the pipe.
that is sitting quite close.i was only running a stock mani so had around 5mm or so more clearance than that
other than that t looks fine

Seems to have made a difference allready though!! now for remap in 2 weeks!
