Another minor setback
While working on creating a heat shroud for the turbo and exhaust I dropped a bolt on to the belly-pan/diffuser and into a puddle of transmission fluid. . Looks like the passenger side axle seal is weeping. So while I have that corner unbuttoned, guess I'll be replacing that... and maybe backing the diff preload a bit.
The plan:

Aluminum chimney with some Thermo Tec heat barrier to try to isolate the turbo and exhaust a bit more and lower the heat soak on the intercooler. I printed an inlet or the passenger side scoop to duct some air to the turbo side, ideally blowing through the chimney and out the back.
The problem:

Noticed a tiny weep after one of the track sessions... guess it was a bit more than that.
