there's an article in modified mag about angled turbo's. it actually has to do with the oil circulating inside and efficiency. too much angle and you're just killing it.

They are there until 7pm every day. I will be there tomorrow (intake test&tune... but that's for a different thread). Come on down, It might run a little late. I won't get there until 4:30ish.

Love this kit for it's developers basing design on efficiency and not worrying about how 'sloppy' the kit looks with the turbo mounted at a slight angle!

Subscribed to here any further data regarding engine bay temps. Turbochargers can dramatically increase engine bay temps. I like to see if there are any adverse effects on due to the front mounted location.
