I would say look at the Powerlab 76S kit, but from my understanding thats a in house install from Intense.

Yeah, in house install is no good. Not paying for someone else to mess up the car.

^pretty much or a Boosted Performance or modified STS kit.

A properly designed single turbo to make big #s needs to be located where you can use a minimum of a T4 flange with a 4" downpipe (3" is probably find in a under the car turbo setup, but would want 4" for a PL/Momentum mounting position). Along with 3" charge pipe to the IC and throttle body.

So either rebuild the front of your car like HAL at Injected or use a mid mount or rear mount kit.

Otherwise, just go with a twin turbo setup and not have to modify anything.

I made 530whp stock tn kit with meth and 18psi built block no cams on a mustang dyno at Japtrix in 2008 open dumps and 600cc injectors and full supporting mods. But that was after a **** ton of tuning, time, and$$$. I was gonna upgrade the turbo but instead I bought a greddy Tt kit and on 10psi 450whp it pulls just as hard if not harder. Pretty much dont **** ur money away on upgrading that tn kit.
