the air filters so close to the tires dont look like such a good idea. maybe its just the angle of the pic though

If you need a shop full of big burley car-men to get you blown, you don't belong here. We get blown all by our ourselves here, sometimes we let our girls watch us do it too.

By blown, I of course am refering to forced induction. >:D

There wasn't much to see... just what looked like a stock dual exhaust with a turbo mounted remotely behind each rear tire.

Still, that doesn't help my lust for the boosting Lexus any...

Doesn't sound like it was much to speak of anyways. Rear mount turboes suck.

Man, all i wanted to see was the pics. I'll do a search or something I guess...

Remote mounted turbo's are BADASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's the HMT version of Chevy camaro's and ----.

There has been ZERO proof to show in-efficiency over a header mounted turbo... No dyno numbers. Boost works on pressure, not flow. So all of you guys can shove it that say remote mounted turbo's suck... I'm a fan of the STS kit... it's badass...

PLUS>>>> it's similar to what i'm doing with my LS1 s10 project in the F.I. forum on here.

header mounted turbo's are for people with engine bay space and lotsa $... Remote mounted turbo's are badass.

Except for those little things called the Laws of Physics. Or do cars not obey those? Is heat energy?

That isn't a point in its favor, in fact, just the opposite.

Of your entirely ignorant post, this is the highlight. I have less engine bay space than anyone on this forum. And I not only have one of the biggest turbochargers here that I've seen, I also have it mounted in the engine bay. As for the money, my project was no more expensive than a rear mount kit would have been. Oil pumps and 8 foot oil lines aren't cheap. Unless they're half-assed like your's are.

BoostGear 04-30-2009 10:50 PM

What are physics?

AaronZ34 04-30-2009 10:51 PM

Numbers and sh!t over IowaTCoupe's head.

slaminsam 05-02-2009 03:19 AM

Hate i missed the pics... I have always thought rear mounts were kind of neat but seems like they could end up having problems considering the length of all the lines and such. Of course im a noob soo my opinion really isnt valid.

Based on that enlightened logic, I should block off the inlet to my engine between the turbo and intake, and crank the turbo WAY up, and I should make a million HP, I mean, like you said, its alll about pressure, who needs flow.
