Taking inspiration from http://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/508697/car/441188/1082310/note.aspx It appears that the inlet flange bolts are slightly too long and may cause turbulence in the compressor housing. Instead of cutting up the original bolts, bought new bolts (M6 x 25mm) instead.
Attached original bolt pic from minkara blog, view from the compressor housing outlet. |

I made sure that exhaust shop added resonator in the front pipe, so it is a bit quieter than before |
