lower mounted turbo options?
i want a lower mounted turbo kit b/c it looks so much more subtle, factory, and i like a nice engine bay but don't like to show off my power mods too much.
so i was wondering what are our options for lower mounted turbo kits? i know we have AVO, but i cant find any others |

If you're going more a modest boost in power, the cleanest most subtle is going to be AVO. Even then you are not going to trick anyone into thinking you don't have a turbo.

Turbo will never be subtle because of the intercooler if you are trying to duck the police or car inspectors, few if any will not be able to tell. If you are looking for subtle because that's how you like the look then yeah, the AP and AVO are your options, even so like it has been said, you really won't be fooling anyone.
Also: This doesn't look factory?!!? ;) http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8100/8...7005c2f0_b.jpg DSC00383 by Supermassive80, on Flickr |
You can also buy one of the low mount kits and try to piece together some intercooler piping (maybe from stock turbo vehicles?) and re-route it to your liking.
An idea I have been toying around with since I am in ca. |
thanks for the info guys. ya I'm not tryna fool any1. its just a kit lik AVO vs a top mount lik FBM is that it looks cleaner. for 1 i hate blankets and heat shield looks. also its nice to be able to hook right up to perrin CAI

I prefer the idea of a low-mounted turbo setup for weight distribution reasons. Not that the GTX28 and stainless v-band housing I wanna use will weigh that much, but still.
