Default Low mount kits possibility

Looking at bringing back some options for our customers. This would a low mount twin kit using stock manifolds.
Would require an oil return pump.
Not recommended on max lowered trucks.
What’s your thoughts?

How do the intercooler pipes get routed and what’s a good option for the air inlets?

Fwiw I've always liked the idea better. I know there may be some disadvantages but really my rear mount was just fine. These would be much better imo. Hope you do it.

I'd be interested in a low mount single... really any single kit for the 14+ trucks.

I like the idea and agree with the above^^^ Anything for the 14+ trucks

I saw ON3 now has the option to use a oil return pump with there kits. I just don't want to go down the ON3 rabbit hole.


Are Oil return pumps more reliable than they where in the past??????

I'd order a single for my H2 today if the price was reasonable.

I have habitually been on the lookout for a bolt in/clamp in low mount assembly for an STS style since my (stick) welding skills are not the greatest nor prettiest, but I can get metal to glue together.

I've been surprised there's not something available that would bolt in place of the cat, or to the cat. I think something like that would sell pretty decent and be highly economical option for both purchaser and to MFR. Most of the reading, research, and threads I've searched on anything with a scavenge pump have been STS style, and those heading that direction know they are going to have to fab up intercooler, oil supply/return, etc. A bolt/clamp in turbo mount option would be 1 less piece of the puzzle standing in a lot of folks' paths with regards to fabrication ability and installation down time. 1 persons opinion FWIW.

Would this use stock manifolds and have an adapter to the turbos or a complete 1 piece manifold? Cast or fabricated? I would be interested.

I am interested but want to use Comp turbos so no oil pump needed. Either run coolant lines or run the new air cooled turbos. This setup is working extremely well on the coyotes. Let’s talk I want to run with the Coyote F150’s. I am ready when you are. I want new headers though not stock. Will call you tomorrow. 2018 Silverado Reg Cab Short bed Z71 4x4.
