Josh, I never noticed before but are you not concerned about that cross over tube melting plug wires or even the distributor cap?

there is a little more room then what appears in the pictures, but not a lot. I would say I have 3" or so from the cap to the tube. We are actually looking at making a heat shield for that crossover tube, just incase though

Looks nice how is the exhaust routed for the turbo? Will it exit out normally under the car?


Allen Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first. Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.

Well that isn’t going to work for a street car.

Ever though about just using header wrap? My down pipe is about 1/2" away from my cap and the wrap works well. Really keeps the heat down.

Do you mean because it looks like it hangs low?

It is not much lower than the k-member, and a good amount higher than the oilpan

I need the exhaust to go to the rear bumper. 40% of the time I have my little girl with me. The fumes are not a biggy to me, but I don't want my 4 year old sniffing it.

With what I read the size, length, tuning of the exhaust is not as important before the turbo, as the restriction is in the turbo itself and the exhaust after it.

These are plenty 700+ hp turbo motors out there with just logs.
