I think Alan was afraid of not being able to regulate boost really low with such a big motor/turbo combo. That turbo is MASSIVE. Can you PM the cost of the fabrication? I'm curious and want someone to build me a nice GT42 combo.

that turbo is huge, it looks like you'll be able to keep the a/c which is great.

Whatever Allan decides to do im 100% behind him. i dont know if there will be clearence issues if its not flattened, but my car is not lowered at all either.
