The designer of this turbo kit is one of the best in the industry. The fit and finish of the final product will be top notch. Please remember the info on this kit was released by a fellow enthusiast and I for one appreciate Miaplaya’s interest. Once a Turbonetics rep gets on this board I assure all of you your concerns will be put to rest.
The placement of the Turbo is similar to a number of Hot Rod V8 designers that are entering the turbo seen. I reviewed several turbo kits in some Hot Rodder Mags that are all running non-cast iron headers and interestingly enough the turbo's were positioned similarly to the Turbonetics kit. I have spoken with a local turbo expert that has reaffirmed the stock headers will not fail prematurely. He also stated he has the utmost respect for the designer of this kit.
The installation time, cost and performance are going to make this turbo kit a big contender. In my opinion the only down fall is the removal of the cats and the stock fuel pump.

Thanks MIA - I read about 29 of the 30 pages of the other LONG thread.
I am not sure they address the manifold issue OR the CARB issue sufficiently for me. He said that the stock manifolds should work but they may not be perfcect and thats what aftermarket headers are for. But there are no aftermarket headers that will work from what I can tell. Have you foung anything ?
Also the CARB issue was never really addressed other than to say they are pursuing it. Without that cat I dont see how it will happen. Too bad cause we need a viable Turbo solution in this price range. I thought this was it.
