G'day boys

Can I have some opinion's on going to a high mount setup. I just like the overall look versus the standard set up. I'm not concerned about costs or power output. When people open the bonnet I want a " holy sh*t " reaction. I have 6 brothers that are hard to impress so give me your best setup options. I am going for 350+ rwkw.

you definitely don't need a high-mount setup if you're going for 350rwkw, if that's your only concern.

if you want aesthetics, too, then get any T3 manifold with any of a bunch of super-capable T3 turbo's and a custom intake/dump etc to suit.

Keith, can you give me a couple of Turbo's to look at that would fit this set up, Thanks

And while were at it, an intake plennum preference.

GTX4202R would do the job for 600rwkw if you want to go that far ;) and would suit the high mount better, but it's not a T3 turbo, it's a T4 turbo. If you want a specific T3, then probably the GTX3584R G2 is probably the best T3 turbo.

 

yours is a BF ute, right? if so and money is no object, then hypertune/plazmaman full replacement intake manifold. if you want cheaper then FG manifold replacement is good enough.

yes, dump needs to be custom to suit a high-mount manifold setup.

 

benefits are look and heat dissipation.
