What turbo setup is this?
I found this on the net, but I am not familiar with it. This may be a repost, but I was just curious as to what kit this is and the pros and cons of this versus the traditional setup.

Thanks

Looks like a waaay too much piping to me, don't really get what they were invisioning for that setup but, if it works, that's all that matters.

Forced Air Technologies. Not really sure why they designed it like that, Turbo has to come out to get the tranny out

sweet set-up, but very different. Not to user friendly if you have to take out the turbo to take off the tranny!

The first words that comes to mind when I see this are, "complicated, awkward, and unnecessary".
