Relocating the Turbo
Just want to start a thread of who has relocated/moved their turbo.

Maybe cocked it to the side so the intake doesnt run under the intake manifold...or whatever.

How did you do it? Custom uppipe? Relocation kit?

Custom Uppipe/downpipe. Maybe an external wastegate depending on turbo. Oh and of course new inlet and outlet piping. It's easier if you have a front mount since outlet piping doesn't have to go into the top mount intercooler.

Aye...I'm not planing on doing this until I can do front mount.

I have more concerns for the upipe. If one exists out there.
