Absolutely not. This is the ''race version'' not the ''street version'' because the test car will be a track car.

Holy mother....
First off, isn't that a bit far for exhaust to travel prior to hitting the turbo? Maybe it's just the pictures.
The exhaust exit from that turbo is amazing. It's going to be insane.....

Im guessing the oil filter is going to be relocated due to space and heat?

Yes sir. Probably relocate it to the bulkhead on the passenger side, and add an Accusump at the same time.

It shouldn't be too bad and in reality, it's not much further than the aftermarket Subie equal length headers once you factor in the up-pipe. Plus, that's where Porsche put the turbos in the 917/30. There's really no other place within the chassis to put it and keep the heat away from plastic, rubber or fluid lines.

kcpaz; it looks like a wild and well planned system..!
Are you planning to get some insulation (or heat shield) between the tubes and gearbox to help keeping the heat away?

I can't wait to see/hear this thing. Nice knowing that there may be another option for a swap
