2016 570s ISG block off question

Good morning,

Does anyone know if the 2016 model year 570s have the ISG tube under the intake? I know my car has an ISG on the side like the 12C/650s but i saw that renaissance speed sells only the under plate for the 570s. Im wondering if they changed that in the newer models or does it have both that need to be blocked off. Ive attached a older pic of my bay with the ISG visible on the side of the intake like on the 12C/650s but i did not check for the under tube at that time. I also included a pic of the renaissance speed ISG tube block off im talking about above. As you can see on their site they call out the undertube plate for the 570s only and the side plate for the 12c/650s only.

Thanks

570's with the single panel instrument cluster have ISG under the intake. The split panel cluster cars have a few things different, ISG placement moves under the intake. I believe somewhere in 2018 is when that change happened.

Correct. None have both, it's one or the other.

Awesome thank you for the info. M-Engineering and i are looking for any boost leaks. Car only put down 501 corrected after the DP and Tune so we are trying to find the reason. We know altitude hurts the car but the whp rating seems low even for that. The logs show everything is good and boost is maxed out but yet we got the numbers above. I have also not been able to find anyone at this DA to compare too hp and 1/4 mile times to.

Does the ISG give any symptoms when it goes bad? I dont have any fault lights and the car runs great other wise.
