I think the reason you may see such small exhaust piping for the rear mount is to maintain the speed of the exhaust so that it imparts more energy on the turbine blades. As the exhaust diameter gets larger, there will be less back pressure, and the exhaust will slow down and spread out in the additional space. With a huge exhaust going to a rear mount turbo, I am guessing you would have a tough time spooling the turbo.

That's exactly what I was going with, but in a less detailed explanation.

This info is very relevant for people like me who are doing research before going FI.

What I get from this is: GTM SC stage 1 and Fast Intentions LTH are both great products but they won't work together because of back pressure issues. Would you agree?

I wonder if anyone has tried: GTM SC stage 1 + Stillen headers + Stillen high flow cats?
Just for the sake of knowing if the formula of Supercharger + free flow exhaust means more power than supercharger with full stock exhaust.

Replacing the exhaust manifolds on the 370 is a waste when going FI they flow very well and you can make very good power,I have stock cats and stock manifolds and making 516rwhp with a GTM stage 1.5 SC.
