Message	But at that point its a custom setup and everybody's will be different. It isn't the most efficient method for applying a turbo for a few reasons: -a lot of heat/velocity/energy lost before the turbo -A lot of intake tract volume (harder to flow/compress) -A lot of plumbing, weight -A lot of extra fluids/plumbing But it does have its positives, mainly that it is *possible* (not advised) to run without an intercooler since the plumbing is long enough to let the temps drop a bit. I considered doing this on my NA, but then figured I would just do it the normal way since it wouldn't cost much more, and there would be more options. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 1992 300ZX NA 5 Sp (Dead) 1990 300ZX NA Auto 2+2 (Dead) 1990 300ZX TT 5 Sp (Est. 400 HP) 1990 300ZX TT 5 Sp (Est. 600 HP) 2004 G35 Sport 6MT (DD)
