If you want to keep your A/C, I think the Turbo Tech street kit is the only one that does. Even with it, you are only limited to maybe 600 hp on a built motor. If you want big numbers, the A/C will have to be sacrificed for some headers.. Log style systems suck, but are your only option

Well...if its custom...then it is up to the person who builds it. Now if you want a production turbo kit from a sponser or company...then I think all you have is the TTi Street Kit and one of TurboZone's kits, or rear mounts.

I never undetstood why anyone with an Incon would want to sell their Incon.
While I'm pondering life's mysteries, I continue to be perplexed trying to understand how no one has emulated the design, i.e. the low hanging twins, etc. and come out with a "copy."
