Looks like most of the other front high mount turbo setups other than the fact they REALLY like flex joints. I don't think that turbo is clocked in the right direction either, haha.

Maybe it's the traditional Subaru location behind the motor?

Does it run a 90 degree silicon coupler off the turbo to take it towards the driver side headlight?

Who needs intercooling? Shove that air right into the intake manifold and run straight methanol fuel like a real man!
