Thanks, Bill. Checked it out and will watch the thread.

I'm skeptical you can mount a turbocharger so far away from the engine and
then get 5psi at the throttle body. BUT 4 Guys Garage is doing a show on it
Dec 30th (for the LS1 chevys, anyway)

If it works, it's VERY cool. Longevity etc I wonder about. I would hate to
drop 4 grand worth of parts on the highway. And the air intake being behind
the rear wheels doesn't thrill me at all. Water infiltration seems like a
huge issue. Less on a truck though. The real beauty of this though (IF it
works well) is not having to find space in an already cramped engine
compartment.
