Nope.

Lt's dont work with a turbo (normally) because a turbo has its own manifolds.

ground clearance is probably the biggest issue with that

if you hit a speed bump or bottom out hard...there goes your turbo and turbine and possibly some tubing....$1k+ right there

unless you run the long tubes then pipes that make a U to a safe place to relocate the turbos...its more money and not needed!

i remember my friends saying turbos always need constant tuning, so does that mean every so often you would have to get it tuned again and again and again? and when they say "tune" do they mean like going to the dyno? or is something more simple like using one of those handheld tuners.

it wouldnt need constant tunning but yes at least one good dyno tune when you get it, is a VERY good idea if you like your engine in 1 piece


people over re-act about turbos and how they need to be maintained.
really they dont have a clue...its not a bitch one bit

get it tuned.. and thats it. just like a s/c
