Fun toy... well not really a toy

Isn't the biggest benefit of a rear mounted turbo avoiding heat soak. So you don't loose performance over time on a hot day. Also supposedly they don't need intercoolers or exhaust, but this on does.

Intercoolers aren't necessary on a rear mount...most guys I've seen don't use one. Too much pressure drop through all of the tubing + intercooler.

Yes, you need an exhaust. You have to get the gases to the turbo somehow...right? ;)

Biggest advantages: lower underhood temps, turbo doesn't get as hot, more room in the bay, cooler oil to turbo, and there's a couple more.

Ok, not to bash but if he is so hell bent on reducing weight (bumper delete even) then why does it have a subwoofer and speakers?

Because Race Car w/ Beats!!! Enjoy a good tune while mashing around the track! :)

Intresting. Not a fan of the bumper deletes but its always nice to see people trying and doing new things and not half assed about it.

It's a space thing... Stupid stupid setup.

this car has had a member's rides thread on here. I can't dig for it now because work, but it exists.
