One reason I like this remote turbo idea also is because of ease to work on.. if there is a problem with a turbo or one of the lines or I/C pipes/clamps. They are all with reach. Everthing can be done with a floor jack. I would hate to blow a turbo and have to pay someone to pull the engine just to change turbos. I also like the idea of being able to switch to n/a again within a few hrs if need be.
If this dont pan out I'll probably go S/C.. Im just not a huge fan of'em

Everything that you just said pretty much wraps up all of my thoughts on this!..

On the STS, they route the oil back up to the front...I've read things about installing a light to go off if oil flow back to the front stops... Do you plan on doing anything like this?
