The objective of a turbocharger is to improve the engine's volumetric efficiency by solving one of its cardinal limitations. A naturally aspirated automobile engine uses only the downward stroke of a piston to create an area of low pressure in order to draw air into the cylinder through the intake valves. The pressure in the atmosphere is no more than 1 atm (approximately 14.7 psi), so there ultimately will be a limit to the pressure difference across the intake valves and thus the amount of airflow entering the combustion chamber. Since the turbocharger increases the pressure at the point where air is entering the cylinder, a greater mass of air (oxygen) will be forced in as the inlet manifold pressure increases. The additional air flow makes it possible to maintain the combustion chamber pressure and fuel/air load even at high engine revolution speeds, increasing the power and torque output of the engine.

This is what happens when a madman finds this kit
Currently installing on my 81 el Camino with a rebuilt 350. Exhaust manifolds are well made. In my application, they did need some trimming & hammering. The piping is universal so trimming will be needed in most applications. Does not include all silicone couplers & clamps needed. I needed to order extra stuff to make work.So overall this kit will need extra parts & labor to make work

Fabercation reqiered
I had to fabercate the exhaust cross over pipe. The right manifold the turbo didn’t fit so I build an adapter to get the turbo away from the motor. But I have to say it was a fun project.

Unless you love figuring things out and have a couple thousand more dollars to spend
Fun project but no instructions and only about 25% of what it takes to install it.

... be hard to install in vehicle but not so bad on airboat
Would be hard to install in vehicle but not so bad on airboat. Would recommend
