Thinking of taking my sts setup off an changing it to a front mount. I have a 76mm turbo. How hard will it be to make it fit? an how much more efficent/effective will it be?

What AR is the turbo? From what I was looking at was the kentucky turbo set up. But I think those guys dont have the provsions to keep the AC with out a tubular k member. Other than that, I like the way the have the hot parts set up. Fairly inexpensive allso and good work. The car would haule butt if the AR on that turbo is .96

I had a T70 with a Ptrim wheel with a .80a/r on the turbine side on my rearmount. Switched to a front mount and put on a .96a/r on the turbine side and it works fine.
