For the turbo, if you have the extra cash the TC78 unit is a small framed turbo with some power potential in your range (have seen 700rwhp with this setup). Space is a premium with our chassis and a turbo setup.

and yea i know space is an issue iv been looking at radiators that tuck up under the core support for that extra few inches so the crossover pipe isnt so close to the radiator and water pump
