nice - the PG1 diesel gearset works well for putting the torque in the right places on the L which isn't a hugely wide rev band... I think theoretical tops speed is 130 with the PG1 pending your final RPM.

Based on what you have described I'd also say consider a chargecooler system - it might not be your cup of tea, but you could use a bonnet scoop/hole and place the rad directly under that - space may also be an issue too tho as you don't want this to be directly on top of the engine really either...

They are generally more compact than a suitable FMIC though from what I've researched - although granted not a lot as I knew I could get a decent FMIC on mine in the slot.

I've also still got my AC rad in place on mine.... but this sits underneath it.
