Heat rises, naturally. Not sold on heat management seeing a glowing red turbine housing is now moved from near the hood, down to the passenger feet. Please don't take that in a wrong way silnc, this is constructive criticism, your fabrication is on point. Generally, the e36 crowd used bottom mount to battle fitment and amenities such as A/C in the e36 chassis, but the e30 has so much room for fun - even keeping said amenities.
In for results. As long as the exhaust:intake ratio is where it needs to be, this setup will make power - I am more curious behind the reason of moving things South of the Border in an e30 chassis. If moving the turbo down low causes a 1:1 charge/back pressure ratio, things are moving in the right direction as whole. Leaving the turbo up above the head makes for funky waste gate situations (aka boost creep).
