Looks great guys. Love the way the manifold pops right up. I love the location but had issues w/ heat doing it this way. Wheres the downpipe going. Is it wrapped?
How much for just the manifolds? Will you sell seperately? |

A big effort indeed. With no emission control on the exhaust side this item could be a worry for those wanting to be as compliant as possible.
Lots of heat emissions for all that pipe area but maybe at the end of the day no worse that the other TC systems, have to monitor the under bonnet temps and see what the indications are. Would have to be significantly cheaper than the other more concealed options before it would be a buy option - to much stuff that immediately shows car is modded - when cops look

hey P&L,
is the turbo placement due to chicago's rough winters? i always questioned the turbo placement of other systems in snowy weather and if the salt/snow combo would damage the turbo. |

Sexy, but I would be concerned with heat near all those accesories/belts... long term that is.
I personally am looking for something moar sleeper and more "compliant" to emissions/cops. |

Looks good, but I do have concerns about heat. Having it right by the belt/idlers seems like it would take its toll over a few thousand miles. Perhaps some sheet metal heat shields could help?

Looks awesome! If I were going to build a kit this is the placement I would choose. Lots of the newer mustang turbo kits have similar placement with no heat/belt issues. Coating can also go a long way in combating and issues which may arise.
