turbo idea, maybe new stuff Options

[st18]

hey yall i dont know if any one has posted it or not (if they have feel free to hit me up with the normal check the old fourms lol) but i saw this new way of instwlling a turbo. what they do is put the turbo at the tail pipe at the back of the car. u bolt the hot side to the tail pipe with a flange and then run your down pipe directly to the muffler. and on the compressure side u run your piping from the turbo to the throttle body. dont know if you can do the intercooler because the pipe will be so long? only thing is im sure you will have alot of turbo lag. and you run the oil lines like u would with the normal setup (just will need alot of line) and i thought this would be great for people like me with a ST because turbo manifolds are so hard to find. when i come across the money im going to try it but if u have the bank to do it before me let me know how it turns out! it just something i thought would help turn the celica into a hellica

remote mount turbos have been around for a couple of years. This is more common on corvettes and the like.
you could do it but it would just cost more money in materials to be honest.

really? i guess in just hearing about it, has any one on here done it before? if i do it i promise to have 1/4 mile tickets and dyno charts

i like the idea and have wondered about it on celicas but seeing that pic of the turbos hanging out under the rear bumper makes me a little scared about theft problems.
it says it can convert back to stock in an hour... therefor park your car at the movie theater, watch your movie and your naturally asperated in about 30 minutes!

never thought about that, that would suck man i guess you would have to work up some thing like skid plates or something to hide it
