The idea should not require any modifications to the stock turbine housing. That ball and socket flange is bolted to the turbine housing with the exhaust studs. Basically my idea is making custom downpipes that bolt directly to the turbine housing instead of an adapter between the housing and pipe. That should provide clearance while doing the same job as those adapters from SPD performance are doing with reducing back pressure in the turbine.
Ever thought of using transverse 3.5 turbos (I believe only one of the two turbos will work, the one with the charge outlet pointing forward) and mounting them after a set of shorty headers where the cats are? Likely would need a scavenge pump but that solves the issue of no oil drain plugs in the stock pan. Would also help increase spool time so you could likely get more linear boost across the RPM band instead of all at once and then falling off at the top. You are essentially replicating aftermarket turbo kits with OEM turbos.
Those wont fit correctly. Its a transverse setup in the SHO.
Really the only custom part to make is an adapter between the supercharger and lower intake. A transverse lower intake eliminates the water neck up front, clearing the front of the engine for idler pulleys. The coolant return/thermostat housing would need to be relocated but that's not difficult with parts available online.
Haha if anything I'll likely get the trufiber A72 hood. That should have enough clearance for the M90.Cut the hood open and put a scoop on it, makes the scoop more functional at least
The guy who was working on the m90 used a hood mount scoop that was real small in height and allowed it to be mounted when he cut the hood under it out. It looked good too.
