It'd be cool to see a FF set up with CBRD's BBK turbo. Something about those blue fins would look awesome!

It's a matter of personal preference. Generally symetry is preferred. So the turbo is only on 1 side so it's assymetrical (just like anybody elses). But it pops outs. Looks good!

Now, you add the the colored horn and it takes away from the how the turbo pops. It is also assymetrical. I feel like the horn gets attention and takes away from the turbo. It also adds further assymetry to the set-up.

It's just my opinion. If the horn was black or not there, I think it will give more attention to the turbo, which in my opinion looks better.

There's going to be 2 horns in that location and of course different color to match something in the engine bay, but looking at it now, I see what you mean

Custom manifold I picked up, not sure who made it since it was an oddball setup, t3 twin scroll (yep I don't get it either) with 2 tial 38s, I had to chop it up and weld a true t4 twin scroll flange and install a t4 TS 6266, stock shortblock but everything else is upgraded, playing with the numbers to see how long the rods hold up
