Remember this is a real turbo kit (not an electric or any of that bullshit). Discuss...

The company makes kits for bikes so they are using an Aerocharger self-contained turbo. These are the ones you don't need to run oil to so you can mount them however you want. And the fuel management has nothing to do with how functional the turbo itself is.
