Re: Turbo kit in the works

Remount is an awesome Idea as long as you put the nipple for the wastegate reading a lot closer to the throttle body and not in the turbo like a lot of set ups are. This way a 6psi spring in the external gate will open at an actual 6psi and not 6psi it sees at the turbo. With that much charge piping there would be a big drop off and 6psi at the turbo is a lot less then 6psi at the throttle body.

Nice fab work btw! My system I'm working on will be a full bolt on as well (with the removal of the washer bottle) but it will be an engine mounted kit with a fmic. It will require a little bit of the front bumper to be trimed but nothing insane.

Looking forward to seeing it!
