Meaning i fixed what i said in the post that i miss typed and left a part out. Dude stop getting bent out of shape over this. What i don't get is ALL air is HOT when it comes in from the air filter/intake. Being were it will be above the fender well is a good idea because air flow does travel up that and it is out of the way of all elements. Let it go man, if you don't like his set up that's cool don't buy it. But I'm sure Bill knows what he's doing with this design.

Sorry but number three is wrong unless u are saying this. I'm not to sure from how you worded it what you ment.
The exhaust gasses never re enter your motor. They travel through the turbos hot side which spins(spools) the turbine blades then the exhaust gasses are released out in to the downpipe. Air is generated from the intake side(cool side) of the turbo when the exhaust side blades spin they are connected to the cold side and they spin which creates air. The two forms of air never mix.
Am i right here??

I definitely wouldn't know how turbo cars work since my other car, my Integra, has a self fabbed turbo kit on it and it could probably outrun most of the Cobalts on here except for Paul's, 06nos's, and 06Black's! 
Hey Bill, can the 20G turbo be clocked down so the outlet is facing towards the ground? I have a different idea for pipe routing needless to say.

I would like to see a 20G kit with Air2Air that feeds into a 2.4 manifold.
If you don't want to go nuts with the port fueler and sheet metal intake is something in the 300-350 hp range doable?

I like the idea however I really don't think the 2.4 plastic intake manifold will take the pressure. I could be wrong however, and I'm sure Hahn knows the real answer to this better than I would. Another alternative however would be the SAAB 2.0T aluminum manifold that already has all the provisions for our sensors we need.

Hey everyone!
I am currently in Las Vegas at the 3rd annual Solstice/Sky National Meet. More Ecotec love for our RWD cousins!
I was hoping for a decent wireless connection in my room so I could continue to revamp our webpages for this new 2.0 turbosystem while I am here, but alas...it's slow to the point of nearly unusable. Stupid motel wireless systems! If I don't get a decent connection while I am here, the updates will have to wait until I return on Monday.
A couple of other quick notes:
Track times will be available after we've gone to the track repeatedly, and developed times I am comfortable with displaying. How long will that take? Well, heh...could be all summer. Never fear...no other company devotes more time to getting to the track and posting killer numbers with their cars than us. In the meantime, our immediate priorities are street and dyno development and getting the systems into production.
Could the system be developed with different intake manifold options? Sure. But...at this point, we have to solidify one configuration and go to market with it. Undoubtedly, any number of variations COULD be considered, but we've decided that offering the system in component groups and modules is how we'll allow you folks to address that. Buy the setup that best fits your needs and experiment away!

That poor turbo! At least it gets to see some movement whereas my EVO III 16g on funcar #2 has even breathed life yet as I'm still awaiting my damn S300 back!
