The reason the piping looks complicated is that it all runs outside the engine bay, but has been designed to give full clearance of the wheel/tyre in hard turning full lock conditions. In fact the engine bay is very simple!

Tuna,
That is a clean setup! What kind of torque do the GTDW2840 turbos put out on this setup?

Our main focus with all of our street level Gen-TTR Intercooled Twin Turbocharger systems is torque, and tons of it at low rpm
Translating our data into Dynojet style figures you should expect around 630rwtq at around 3800rpm

Note: We also have a Garrett Dual Ball Bearing option for this same G8 kit now which gives 600rwhp with relative ease
