Some people say a turbo won't react a well though since the exhaust gases have to make two 90 degree turns to get out of .

I'm thinking it will react EXTREMELY well to turbos due to it having no overlap.... Overlap causes lots of powerloss in the *old* rotary engines when turboed.


As far as the 90* bends......who cares......the exhaust mani on a FD is a fuckin maze of bends and trap doors. If it can get out effectively on that thing......side exit ports shouldn't be a problem (IMO)
