I'm not a fan of remote turbos...

how does a remote turbo work?

Seems like there'd be a LOT of lag doing it that way.

the car gets aniline dyed Florida crocodile black leather

ick, the just doesn't sound like something I want to ride on.

Look at where the turbos are. They are behind the rear wheels, in the rear of the car, exposed to everything. And like was stated above, lag is a huge issue, you have several more feet of tubing to pressurize versus a local mounted turbo.

If you can't fit it under the hood...it doesn't belong there.

car is 350K?? thats way too overpriced! + croc seats (WTF?)LOL :smile:

that much cash - get a kick a$$ top of the line Ferrari!

Good thing I thought to search before starting a thread on remote turbos. I can sorta understand the lag issue. . .but for me $3500 for a DASC is waay out of my range. . . The car guru at work is also anti remote turbos - though so far his major complaint has been the exposure and how low are cars are to the ground.

I'm thinking they can be mounted so its not that obvious and less chancy that someone will follow me home to steal them. What other issues are involved with them being "exposed" other than getting scraped when I go over really big speed bumps or weirdly shaped driveways.

If those are the only issues, I'll gladly exchange lag time for the extra (comparatively cheaper) boost.
