yea, i guess its cool for the sleeper look, but ive heard that its not very good to have it so far away from the motor. and that the closer to the motor the turbo is, the better.

not true at all. BIgger turbo with long pipes>smaller turbo with short pipes. All you have to do is put a bigger turbo to cancel out the lag.

false.putting a bigger turbo is NOT going to cancel out the lag,get real.

ya tell me about it. i dont think this guy knows very much about it. come on man. a bigger turbo plus being farther back on the exhaut means horrible turbo lag.

"Since these systems are uniquely designed to function at the rear of the vehicle, it operates without any noticeable lag and will produce full boost below 3,000 rpm. This is because the intake-tubing volume is about the same size as most traditional turbos that are front-mounted with an intercooler. The system is a true bolt-on kit that can usually be installed in an afternoon. In an F-body, the intake tubing is routed under the car on the driver's side. The tubing's exposure to ambient air alongside the car also serves to cool the charge. Tests have shown that turbo outlet temps with 5-psi boost measured 175 degrees F (at the rear of the car) and dropped to 115 degrees F at the intake discharge up front. The pressure drop was 1/4 to 3/4 psi. The bottom line is that the intake tube acts as an intercooler, dropping the rear-mounted turbo temp (which is already lower than engine compartment installations) about 50 percent and with a very small drop in psi.
