Default I dont think this will fit.

I was looking around and saw this auction. I dont think the this turbo setup will fit.
Exhaust runners are too long, Turbo on the wrong side. Looks to me the exhaust would exit thru the hood.

Correct me if I am wrong, If the photos are correct, help the poor soul that buys this.

Turbo Upgrade ?

it does fit, but you need to bang on the firewall a little to make space. but it will work...i know one car that had it. it's the hp racing kit.

It is just how they bolted that pipe on for the pictures, in the wrong direction, it doesn't mean that it bolts on in that direction on the car. I would love to see that set up after a few months of use. If it doesn't have any braces or brackets to support the weight of the turbo, then the welds are gonna break loose after a bit of use.

actually that's part of the reason that he got rid of the kit. he had it on the car for about 2 months, and it never ran right. he finally got it tuned decently and took it to the track, and quickly proceeded to crack the manifold in three places, as well as the weld at the dp.

he's now running the import palace kit, and it's great. he's only running 20 lbs right now and the car pulls like crazy. once that thing goes up to 24lbs watch out!!!

So I can adjust the boost level if I remove my radio. And looking at those exhaust runners looks way too long off the block. I would agree that this would be a one time use setup. Or are these pipe a new way to help stop the wheelhop, by bracing the engine to the firewall.. LOL

I knew by looking at it that it couldn't possibly last unless it were braced. That is why you will rarely see a header set-up on a turbocharged vehicle.
