Like what? The regular problems of turbocharging, wherever mounted.



Oh, and I have AC, full accessories, and I'm lowered... Nothing scrapes.

You will come into slight "issues" but not major problems as any other major upgraded car goes. Remember you are turbocharging a NON-turbocharged vehicle so that in itself is a "challenge" to most. Either way a couple of the major PROBLEMS will be traction and buying tires like a madman but other than that its all good its well worth it
