i saw that weeks ago…

maybe it’s set up like the one i’ve attached…

or maybe Import Tuner is just a bullshit magazine…

edit: NM, i just saw the cone filter attached to the pipe :doh:

no it was in import tuner…i think someone goofed up and put a car in there that didn’t have all it said it did… OR the owner isn’t using the turbo at the moment and is bypassing everythign,.

The cone filter isn’t attached to the pipe. It just looks that way from the angle the picture was taken.

My guess, the intake pipe between the filter and the compressor has been removed for some reason. Either way, there definitly is a turbo installed… you can see the polished housing:
