Call Les Palmer at 972-241-4387 He could tell you more about it than I can. He had 2 radiators made and mounted them off the firewall at about a 10 degree angle and ran the 2 inlets from up front straight to the radiators. I opened the outlet about 2 more inches all the way across. At 100 degree day it needs a lot of air. I am mot sure what you will do with the heat from the turbo But Dan Deil had a turbo VW and made it work.
