What do you mean by a heat box?

You have to note that it is really tight in there!

That would be appreciated!

By the way what oil do you use for your motor Garm?

I use Sunoco racing oil full synthetic 10/60

Hard time to remove exhaust but finally coming to an end!

Turbo exhaust chamber, downpipe and exhaust manifold coated with DEI silicone high temp resistance paint. After paint dry wrapped turbo and downpipe with DEI titanium wrapping. Hopefully to get better engine bay temps.

Next......

- Finishing some wiring organization
- Red paint to engine cover and turbo/intercooler tubing
- Adding sandwich adapter for oil temp and pressure

Parmas, here is the insulation box I made for the fuel system. Just a thought. You could do the same thing for your brake cylinder in the engine bay -- or anything else. This is pretty stiff aluminum with insulation on one side:

Some enhanced new looks.... All paint is designed to work above 500DegreesF.

Next completition of new coolant piping which will be come blue...

Also done lots of shielding at the back panel area to protect brake lines from overheating.

So if front mount creates huge turbo lag and top mount spools faster but hotter (and thus less boost), how the hell do you pick which one you want? Sounds like very big drawbacks on both parts.

I would think a larger engine, which creates more overall exhaust, wouldn't suffer as much from excess lag from a front mount versus a Yaris which burns much less overall fuel. Correct?

read my above post. There is no noticable lag.

You are over simplifying it a fair bit. Both setups can be made to work as good as each other and it depends on what purpose you want to design it for. There's alot of variables to be taken into account though to get it right (eg. piping diameter, bends, pressure drops, turbo sizing and efficiency ranges, gear ratios, cam design/ duration/ timing, engine timing, bov design etc etc).

And if all else fails, turn the antilag on
