There seems to be no chance if you're running AC though.

Whatsize turbo you run or want to run will dictate what you can and can't do pretty much. Like I kinda got stuck because the holset's have a type of exhaust housing style where when I mounted it, it actually put it too close to the starter. A simple spacer bewteen the turbo and manifold pushed it away enough though and I have a heat shield for the starter which I would recommend with this manifold no matter what. I can have my dump from my wastegate plumb rght back into mymain exhaust at a favorable angle and like he said I won't have to heat up the intake air befor it's even been compressed. As for a intake I had planned on using just a filter on the turbo anyway like you see. I didn't get a chance to see if I have room now after the spacer but before the spacer def not intake friendly mainly because of powersteering though. If I take out powersteering I would have a cool intake that I would probably put by the fender opening for a cold air type get up. That's all for now more updates to come
