ToyotaTech15 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Hi mate,To be honest im not keen on meshed turbos myself, if you can afford the turbo surely you will be ale to stretch that extra bit and buy a filter, not directing this at you thou mate,There was a member on here that recently had his mesh sucked inside the turbo which obviously isnt a good thin, although it was tight it still went inside.Air filter relocation kits are available from a few places like TM-Developments and Monstor Motorsport,As far as i know you dont need to relocate the oil filter atol, well i have never seen a TD04 with a relocated oil filter due to the air filter.Hope this helps, any more questions just askGary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
