    honestly its a matter of opinion on your part, yes you can just put it on the turbo
    alot of people still use an intake pipe for 1-2 degree cooler (before turbo) temps

    for me personally i would go with filter on the turbo

    1-2 degrees cooler? 1-2 degrees cooler than the surface of the sun. If you've ever seen a turbo or collector glow red on the dyno, you'll probably realize you don't want your intake air coming from that area of the engine. Not to mention it's right behind the radiator. :roll: To each their own though, it still works that way I guess.
