Q for those who have a single turbo setup

How did you run your crossover pipe? Did you run it in front of the engine or around the back?

Any single setup I have seen ran it under the front. More room to do it there.

Most of the prefab ones that I have seen run under the back side. if you look @ the Turbo Tech setups, they use the stock manifold on the Drivers side & run a crossover back up into the bottom of the turbo manifold.

The method of running the cross over around the back seems like a complicated idea. You would have to run one pipe to the turbo and then have to fight with the large down/exhaust pipe from the turbo. I would have thought that i would be much easier to just run it around the front of the engine.
Thanks for the info guys.
