im a little worried about the whole rear mount idea... if i could figure out some way to place the turbo closer to the engine bay i will do this.. or if someone can throw up a good arguement why rear mount is good

im just gonna follow it just like that guy did... i wonder what kinda computer tuning ill need.. also i was lookin under my car and im not all that comfortable running tubing under the k member... there isnt a whole lot of room.. im trying to think of an alternative.. but this sounds like a good idea if i can work it all out and get enough fuel.. could probably be good to hit 11s if i did a cam too
