No, they suck. In every way.

And that would still defeat the purpose of the turbo headers he made.

I think the best thing to do is redo the rear header. Shorten the primaries before the collector to bring it closer to block and sweep them down to give more room between the master cylinder and valve cover to fit the 3" dp.

Even with what Chris said it is so much more work than just redoing the rear header.

Since were on the turbo topic, is it possible to run a single turbo with an A2A FMI without having a passenger side TB? Ive always wondered, That would be a TON of plumbing.

Umm, all vendors kits are like this. The stattama, z7, z3 and cartuning kits are setup for a driver side TB. It's not that much more piping than a pass side tb.

My cartuning intercooler:




New treadstone intercooler (these are Tengis' pics but mine is set up very similarly, he is using a tangential turbo and mine is an on-center)


My lower pipes are tucked up behind the ic, they don't have lower like these do and I am using the same intercooler however it sits a little lower.

Very nice, just like a stattama setup but about $450 cheaper.

Probably because everyone knows that M90 builds hit a wall and turbos make the huge power.
