> yes they are mid mount turbos, and i didnt know that they made a single kit for your cars. the kits for the gt500’s work very very well (mid mount). How do they get hotter under the car as opposed to in the bumper or in the engine bay? Wouldnt they actually be cooler? And there is a front mount as well… and not holding psi would be a wastegate issue i would think? Why are there issues tunning this setup? Sorry about asking so many questions. I know John and the guys at Hellion pretty well and any feedback on how to improve upon what they make would be great.

Thats just what i have read as far as issues. The single kit was a custom build not a hellion set up. STS does have a kit available that is making some good numbers. Just seems to be tuning these things with turbos is a nightmare. Tell those dudes if they need a test dumby, im into it! I have a new forged motor on the way.
