bigger pipping = more turbo lag. More velocity(smaller piping) = more spool, which in turn = Since the downpipe is basically the exhaust there is no backpressure issues. My only concern with the kit is the distance the air needs to travel to and from the turbo. Good numbers, I've seen these kits on a number of different cars and they make good power. It's all up to the individual owner in the end!

The system is designed for that distance. I've never had an issue with the system or the "lag" everyone seems to think will happen with that distance.
The turbo kicks in the same time as a front mounted turbo.

They wouldn't be in business if the system didn't work. Innovation is the only way to stand out in the crowd and making the same and better power than everyone else can and for a cheaper price. Now you got a company that is going somewhere.
