    In a word NO the "cold feed" has a diameter of 2-2.5" even if you managed to get it pointing directly forwards after all the twists and turns you would have to put in it to get it to point at the filter there would hardly be any thing coming through it. and as for being as close to the turbo as...

    200tdi or 300tdi

    200 is very very basic and bomb proof but like a tractor, 300 a bit more refined both are a doddle to work on and both are really easy to get bits for

    Will Black Derv or Bio ruin the Cat

    nope it's just a box best thing to do is get a de-cat front pipe and throw the thing in the scrap. it'll run better and give a bit more power too
