Default Reverse inlet

I have a 99 uk turbo with a FMIC but the pipes are giving huge levels of lag.

anybody know where or who might be able to build me a reverse inlet and take some lenght off my intercooler pipe, around the kent area would be a result??????

Dave Wallis certainly does them, but he's in Yorkshire.

I seriously doubt that the result of reversing will be lot less lag.

Other than shortening the inlet path no not really, unless you take into account the few KG saved by removing your air con so you can do this in the first place.
