I kind of want to try this.. It's badass how he hid the charge piping into the side skirts!!

[kwhauck]

some decent fab skills....

I thought you were posting a build thread of your own build.

wow thats cool as hell, but dont they already make turbos that go in the back?

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

so whats the benefits of having a remote turbo setup?

[heineck]

Other than being able to have a header and a turbo? No idea

According to them,

makes alot of sense now.

guys who cares about rear mounted turbo`s that fabricating is unreal, that man has a talent, wow very impressed!

extremly nice job... but there was a thread 4 or 5 months about the same thing there is a company that makes rear turbo's off the exhaust.. i dont remember the name though.

i know the exhaust is making the turbo spool... but isn't travelling that whole way back up to the intake, killing the velocity the air enters at?

I think once going the volume of air returning to the intake would be at a decent velocity...not sure

and damn nice work on the side skirts. Altho body matching paint would be my preference

I believe you were thinking of STS Turbo systems. http://www.ststurbo.com/


.... and cause I want to dust off my physics hat.

Basicly its pressure not velocity, because the throttle body is the restriction constantly. Unless under wide open throttle, but it is still the governing body that controls the metered air into the engine. The Pressure diffrential is dependant on the space past the smallest restriction and the ability to supply the Throtter body with enough air on demand without falling below what it needs at max use. Inessence, if the restriction not supplying enough air at max demand, Increasing the pressure will compensate, however because of the pressure differintal, I would put a second blow off valve near the Throttle to reduce the chance of a boost spike.

absolutly amazing

and yeah you will loose some boost from all that traveling, granted he has no leaks.

just about all your basic ass turbo setups have one number of boost from the turbo, and then the recieved end at the TB number is lower

[02AleroEco]

amazing.

he defiinetly knows his shit
