05 Spec v se-r / Remote turbo?
Wondering what you guys think if I were to remote turbo my sentra. I believe STS is making a kit for Acura integra's, at leaste thats what it looks like.
Just wondering if anyone has heard of anyone doing this type of set up.
Thanks.

I don't see why you would go to all the trouble of a remote mount system when there are plenty of ppl, including myself and Big J on this site, who are just settin' it up the ol' fashion way and gettin' great results...

I don't know how you HMT guys feel about noobs helpin noobs, but I've put a little thought into this rear mount setup.
The flanges for the turbo, downpipe, and wastegate can be had for less than $100. The most expensive part would be the oil scavenge pump you'd need to suck the hot oil out of the turbo, which brings me to a question:
how much psi does the turbo see, for say....under 10psi, or are they all different? :1
And rather than feeding the oil all the way back to the engine in the front of the car, make a self contained oiling system in the trunk. I was thinking maybe a 2.5-3qt container, use an inline filter with a decent sized feed line to be sure the turbo isn't under oiled... with it being sucked out of the other side.
I was thinking of also finding a chain link fence post, knock it out of the ground and clean it up, for the intercooler piping to go back up to the front, along the exhaust. Possibly heat wrapped.
a cheap intercooler, and intercooler piping kit from ebay. Still need the necessary injectors, fuel pump, bling bling gauges, and tuned!!!!!!!!
From any and everything I've read, tuning is key, so a tuned boosted car is a tuned boosted car.
I plan on fitting the BOV in the bumper area, which brings me to another question :
does running 2 BOV cause any problems? I'm just thinking because the boost tubes are gonna be so long, there's gonna be built up pressure, and I can prevent compressor surge.
This is just a setup i've thought about.
