I dont get that they cover up the whole engine with covers, but leave the turbo out in sight...

Wow! Love that colour!! F20 still has to grow on me, but this is helping a hell of a lot - really looking good, interior is very nice a fresh looking, I like! Great choice of wheels too!

I reckon exposed turbo not hidden by engine covers is most likely simply because of heat issues - these things need air-flow when working harder, and as much as some of us love fire, sometimes not always the best plan to have flammable plastics too close to potentially red/white hot parts of the engine. :rollsmile:

Looking forward to your impressions as you put many happy kms on the clock!! Enjoy! :thumbs:

there are materials that wont catch fire i know :rollsmile: they could cover it if they wanted to and still let air flow under it... my guess is they wanted everyone to see the turbo to make a statement...

I remember seeing a thread with youtube vids showing how resilient pink crocks are to fire... :rollsmile:

Its so you can swop it out to a bigger one quicker. 335 takes 18 hours of labour.
