Yeah that turbo is going to explode when he starts it up, unless there is a block plate welded in between the hot and cold side. Looks like nice welds on the piping though. ---

I have to believe they blocked off the boost/exhaust section and only connected them for aesthetics. ---

Basic premise that the STS rear mount turbo uses basically and that type of setup can be made to be as good as a normal turbo placement. Welding looks pretty damn good and seems like it was fun project to make. But don’t get me wrong, that it is pretty damn redneck. ---
