thanks, very interesting thread. think Im gonna try to setup a single turbo, not to big either. I have @ 300-320 rwhp right now, like to get like 400-420 rwhp, but with a real wide and torquey powerband. I think thats a pretty realistic goal. once I sell my streetbike I'll have like 2 G's to put towards it, thnk most of the cost will be the fuel system and tuning.One of the 94-95 guys did it. It should work on a Fox, although the intake system may be a bit different.
You'd honestly be better served keeping it in the engine compartment, for ease of installation if nothing more. Put it in the driver's front corner, run it through the intercooler and right up into the intake on the passenger's side. I can understand if you're going for the hidden look of the remote mount setup, but aside from that, it doesn't have much benefit. You can buy U bends and header flanges from Jegs, or Summit and make up your own hot side with fairly relative ease, if you're mechanically inclined enough and know how to weld.
My buddy built up a home made twin rear set up with his 351W powered '82 GT. Went pretty good. engine had nothing more than an E-cam, ported E7TE's and Performer intake and under boost it ran 11.20's@117mph.
pics by any change?
It seems like a rear mount system would have slow throttle response issues and possibly make lag more of an issue... But I can't say I know a lot about rear mount turbos, so don't quote me on that.
Also, it seems like routing the intake tubes under the car would definitely be a PITA.
That car was fricken BA, 408 LS motor, th400 with a gear vendors OD, making 800 on like 15 lbs of boost. killer street car.
