To anyone using aaz with original manifolds and turbo-what have you done regarding airbox?
This probably applies to TDI engines also in that jx part dont fit.

Not using original airbox, using original JX cylindrical diesel air filter, then into nearside space (inaccesible) above wheel arch hole in Doka

Soory,should have been more specific,mines a panel van.
I presume there is more space under the load bed of a dropside.
With closer inspection its apparent the only space I can use is behind the n/s tail light as thats where the snorkel runs to.
But thats where me intercooler was going.
hmmm.
And both hose stubs are on the same end on jx airbox.

Here I found a few solutions. Might help.

Yes,very interesting.
I was playing with the idea of doing away with the battery tray and using that space,but that means relocating battery in van,I presume under the seat as per petrol.With heavy leads to help volts drop.
The pics of intercooler were good.
I see he cuts the floor out to enable use of a tall,thin cooler.
Wonder if he has them fabricated or are they a production part?
pics of TDI conversions answer a few questions I had on that topic.
I'm sorely tempted to go down that road.
