Why not on the turbos?

Live in the country and leaving my house to get to pavement includes 2 miles of minimum maintenance roads (smooth dirt, very dusty) or 2 miles of gravel/rock (also dusty). If I go the turbo route, I need clean air from up front.

Look at pulling the fuse box and relocating in front of the fender liner. I believe that is what the Paxton blower guy did. That should create room on the passenger side. Removing the intake on the driver's side should free up some there. Relocating the battery to the rear should give you a spot for the coolant tank for heat exchangers. Remove the fog lights and the heat exchangers could sit behind that opening (you would likely need some type of mesh to keep rocks from damaging the HEs).

Well, that makes sense!

We relocated the Computer to the firewall inside under the AC. I need to relocated the battery, but low on the list right now....
