hmm, I guess it depends on what kind of cost we're talking about here. I already have a new non-equal length divided (OBX) that I will be using to get me by until I can afford a better one. But of course as is the case w/ anything, if the price is right, why not? But it always depends on price...

That seems pretty reasonable -- esp. for an equal-length mani... If others are interested, I could probably handle something in that price range. Would definitely like to see more pics...

Are the runners equal length?
Is this just a show or race vehicle?
You just added another 90° bend that wouldn't have been needed if it was placed like the stock turbo position.
The new position also shifts a lot of the turbo heat more forward and heats up the front of the engine more so?
The only advantage you gain is you make a little more space (for the dual WG's), and your turbo size is unlimited.

The other thing I forgot to mention is how close the downpipe gets to the shock tower. Maybe it's just an illusion from the dig pic? If it is that close, it almost necessitates stiff engine mounts to keep the engine from rocking side-to-side. That's a serious turbo that's going to make some serious torque!

Ah, I just looked at your location (NO), that explains a lot.
I guess their execution on a turbo exhaust system is a little different that what I would run.
In fact, we're going to start running twin turbos on several motors and get away from the big single. If we can keep the turbos on the side of the engine, we see no need to relocate them radically (in the front) as in the pics above.
Those pics remind of the the GN turbo set-up though...

And yes hopefully it will make some numbers.
