My friend said he saw a turbo system that replaces you muffler and uses your existing exhaust mans/headers. It was for 4th gens and he said it was on HPTV or some show like that. Can anyone clarify??? I think he's full of it.

i've seen people try to advertise a rear mount turbo setup on here before.. i would do a search to see what you come up with, i wanna say i seen it in the firebird forum as well. but if im not mistaken, the guy got banned, so getting ahold of someone for info would be a pain..

yes there are such turbos and they are called remote mount turbos. They work on the basis of getting the heat out of the engine bay and by pulling the air through your motor... they are supposed to be a different concept of a normal turbo design wise. I don't know if I would recomend it but everything has its pros and cons i guess.... if you want to read into it you can go to http://www.ststurbo.com/

WTF is that you added into the quote, he never said that, his post wasn't edited at the time Im reading this.

Just in case he decideds to edit it out, he "clickhere" added:
