This kit will allow one to use the stock exhaust manifolds. Final turbo connection is still up to the end user. This is another option if you want a turbo kit but do not want the turbo in the engine bay or maybe cannot fit a turbo in your engine area. Or you like your rear mount stuff and want faster spooling etc.
The kit will have an oil pump. The turbo compressor housing is just slightly lower the the frame.
You can see our air to air in one of the pics. We will have 3 options for our customers to choose.
500max
650+
and 500+ALL day long air to water. Add ice or at the race track HP numbers go well over 750hp.
Some prelim picks(mock ups) and as always getting peoples input.

That's an interesting way to do it on a 2wd, but won't work on a 4x4, unless you drill a big hole though the turbo for the torsion bar to go though,
. Would make for quick installs too.

How about a couple of pictures of the setup looking down from the passenger side of the engine bay. Is there room to take a 4" (or 3.5") intake tube up to the engine bay? You could put an airbox in the rear corner and pull fresh air from the fender. That would solve the wet filter issue rear mounts are dealing with.

thanks
Yes it will be less.
we are looking at using carbon instead of stainless steel as well to save some coin.
well 4x4s what can you say.
, I have another kit for them that works out really well. In fact I think several are just starting to tipy toe, their ways to the 500hp mar,.
4" is to tight to go up., in fact the standard air filter in the kit, will have to be installed prior to mounting the turbo. .
We can machine the compressor cover down to much small OD and that will lend itself to the fix.
thanks, get that cam taken care of yet. 500hp on its way.
Thanks for the interest so far guys, the kit is a little way off, but someone might be able to get one for Christmas.
Maybe this would work on the TBSS, I know they are looking for a turbo set up.
I will have some more pics later, gate is mounted and the SP is mounted, just need to make the final connection.
SP= straight pipe instead to DP downpipe. LOL

I've been running that setup for quite awhile now. That's pretty much where I have mine mounted. I just basically took my STS kit and my stock y-pipe and modified it. It didn't take too long, but you're really limited as to what size turbo you can run. For my future plans, I'll be forced to move it into the engine bay. Nevertheless a good quick and dirty way of getting turbo'd with a **** ton less lag than the STS system.
