Um, they dont' sell them. You would have to have TWO custom made. This is a 6 not a 4 cylinder boss man.

About 1100.00 dollars if you want it to fit inside an SHO. Less if you are building something else. I will custom build you anything you want.

Uh nope, stainless is almost twice as expensive.

I'm sure Ashley and Paul will bend you up a turbo up pipe for wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy less than 1K. I know they would. However, it won't be mandrel bent but will work quite nicely.

its a V6 to be exact.lol.
have you looked into a rear mount turbo. its kinda crazy how it works but it works. check out STS vids on youtube and you can find out how they work a lil more. you wouldnt have to have a turbo manifold and you could put it where you might have more room. other wise you will have to run some crazy looken pipes all over the front of the engine bay or just go with a supercharger. or just go to shonutperformance and get the 11 to 1 compression pistons. what ever way you go you should do all the research that you can befor you start so you can do it right the first time and not mess shit up.

Yes, I have a turbo on my car and am very aware of all the piping that you have to do. It is alot of work and a ton of bending.
I think remote mount turbo's are awesome and I believe they limit the need for an intercooler since alot of the heat is lost in the return piping?
I don't know if this is a myth, but I have heard that "two brothers car garage" did a remote mount setup on a SHO. It only made 300whp so it must have been very conservative but made great results none the less.

well i have talk to mister squires and he said that with the RM turbo that the power dosnt spike like a supercharger or a right off the head turbo, but more like the power comes on like a wave in the sea. he said that the power curve is pretty close to what the curve would look like for and N/A thus also less tweeking need to be done to the ecu and it comes on gradually so you dont see those nasty power spike and lessing of a chance of snapping rods or half shaft. the only thing with the RM turbo is not many if any have done it for the SHO. i plane on doing a MR turbo with the stock CT26 turbo off a 87 supra(7mgte 3.0, SHO 3.0 why not). but first i am going to do some work on the heads. "a high velocity port" said mister bill "will help spool the turbo faster due to the exhaust gasses traveling faster out the headers and hitting the turbine wheel". so a turbo will be nice addition to the head package i will be working on with him(he dose the work, i tell him if it picks some numbers after the dyno). how much piping did you use just for the turbo manifold and what what the total degree of all the bends of the turbo manifold. but non the less john, **** yea turbo SHO, you rock.

I am aware of that. I really like the work that he did and he did it on the cheap. It sucks that he blew out his clutch. The 300whp one was the one that I heard the 2 brothers car garage did. I don't know if it actually happened, but I read about it on the internet.
I'll get back to you on the piping used and total degree of bends for all of the piping. Yah, I think a remote mount turbo is great. Eliminates alot of the heat and gives you a shit load of room to work with. The only thing is like you said from what I've heard, they don't spool up quite as fast.

If the turbo is sized right, this isn't an issue.
Any pics of this "inside manifull" would the turbo be located by were the stock airbox was or right under the Heads?

No pics as I have them built to whatever location you desire. You tell me what turbo you will be running and where you want it and whether you will be running an air/air or air/coolant charge cooler. I will get a "mock-up" turbo of the same type and size and a SHO like yours and have the headers built here. It's not the cheapest way to go, Tim's in and out pipes group buy is the cheapest way to get turbo'd. As you might have noticed, I don't play in the low end. If you do it right, you'll have 5-7 grand in a good turbo set-up.
