I think its financially better going a2a with turbo's. I still think you will get awesome power regardless. The w2a setup is good if you aren't intending on cutting inner guards to feed piping and have restricted space. The benefit as you would already know is with w2a, you always have cooler intake temps regardless of weather. But top marks from me for giving this a go and being original. I haven't seen a N series barge with boost before. Looking forward to seeing how this little gem goes. :mrgreen:

shav, have you been under a rock? lol

there was 'the diff workshop' 's NA Fairlane turbo, was a SVO, had a smack one night in the front, so they dropped an AU motor into it and a turbo, done 5th gear skids lol, 4th gear take offs with wheel spin lol

then there was revengelane's NC Twin Turbo. massive money spend on that...

there is a few more but i dont think they were as crazy as i was with the install lol.
