New muffler turbo?

[BobbyVenture]

Heard about it on TRUCKS!. Apprently it replaces you're muffler, it's universal, sts turbo company makes it. I was thinkin' it for Venture....then just run the plumbing to the t.b and I got 80-100 more ponys...and killer sound lol..What yall think?

That...is awesome! I've seen remote turbos, but that one is the best so far. Stacy rules. He makes Diesel from French Fry grease!

Yah, I'm not into Pickups alot, but that show is funny, and really informative. I was thinking, seeing as my vans a tight squeeze under the hood, that may be perfect.

for 4-5 grand, you could get something alot nicer...

I spend most of my time on turbomustangs.com (not just mustangs) and they make lots of really nice setups on the cheap.

I like the idea of having a remote turbo, but there is a down side to it. since the turbo isnt near the tb it takes longer to build boost.
but it is still a good idea.

what about oil lines on a set up like that?

[RebelGT]

from what i know, theres an electric oil circulating pump for the turbo.

i wonder how it would hold up to debris from the road. cans, rocks, the occasional part off a wrecker... thats the only thing that shoots it down for me. if i d a fast car i'd drive it all the time, and most of the roads i drive are rural, so they arent in top shape.

why not just buy a turbo and run the piping urself? many said they make boost almost as fast as a engine mounted turbo...

Read about turbine theory and then make your decision.

Myself, I will never run a remote turbo, due to many factors.

if you want to make boost at a decent RPM with a remote mount turbo you will max the turbo out at a very low boost level due to the insanely high AR on the hot side required to make any sort of boost at a low RPM with a lot of tubing
