Default any successful "bigger" turbo installs that keep all acc.?

like a 76 or 88. absolutely must keep both a/c and power steering. anyone done it yet? also must be a front mount and would prefer to see some 88's. the ofi kit looks promising but ive been unable to get any good pictures of it installed.

You could find a used HiFlo kit like I did. I was planning on installing the kit and retaining a/c and p/s. Just have to get a line bent for the a/c

plug access is a little tricky but ok once you learn the tricks. Plug WIRE access sucks. Hardest part is getting the boots to slide on a plug and "click"....no room for a good grip or leverage on 2 wires.
