aye wassup guys...well ive been wondering about this for the past...uhh...just a long time. y dont people or is it even possible to run the turbo after the header (with a custom flange of course). wont the turbo receive the full exhaust flow, thus optimizing the use of usable air flow? i dont know..maybe im missing something. the turbo would be close to the ground, but with some customization-create a protection device or even inclose it....i need all u turbo techs to enlighten me with this setup....thanks for your help

 

I am not all into the turbo thery yet... Nore don't know everything i should no... But if you did that you would have turbo lag... Because the exhaust gases take a while to spool the turbo etc... Also then you would need to make the exhaust for the turbo as well.

 

well...there will be lag anyways. i dont think the exhaust will be that hard to customize...or better yet, forget the exhaust...lol

 

umm i think itll be hard to do piping and most important- oil return, i dont know how it will flow against gravity

 

Oil return line? turbo overheating? NO PROBLEM!
all you need to do is chop of the head flange, reverse it, weld a turbo flange, and cut a hole in the hood. voila.

 

hahah, thats a tight pic

 

hah whiterice, you made me laugh tonite... goodjob

 

ive seen a turbo setup located under the oil pan on a ford focus, im not exactly sure how he ran the oil return line there must be some pump

 

i don't think running the turbo so close to the ground is a good idea... speed bumps or something might kill it

 

I don't see what the point of it would be. Save money on a turbo manifold? What are you trying to save by doing this? You would need a pump for the oil return and your turbo would be dangerously close to the ground. Why would you want this?
