So that the side of the turbo comes out of the hood not the whole turbo

Sunb1rd - love that car in the sig man

To the poster - how do you do it? Get some good strong proper stainless tubes and a welder and a flange and go to town and make it - nobody makes a manifold like that. It would be a header with a collector pointing up and turned so the impeller faces forward like the drag cars do.

Custom work at its finest - but the question is - what's the point for a street driven cars? You want to build a squirrel-eater? I can see it now...

"Guys... how do you get squirrel bones out of the impeller?"

95% of highly competative turbo drag cars mount the turbo through the hood

0% of competative turbo street motors mount the turbo through the hood

i think its less for the sake of mounting it that high and more of because usually the turbos are so huge there's no where else to put them

no use in sticking a T25 or a T3 60 trim out of your hood...

it would be like walking around in a wife beater but you have noodles for arms

I was thinking of that for 2 turbos... but I better not... It's like the gogo gadget car of this video:
