Is this the setup with the Gargantuan exhaust manifold that places the turbolader above the valve cover?
The other setup they made fit 88+ pickups (not suburbans and blazers) that mounted the turbolader in the center of the manifold nearest to the manifold itself and below the valve covers.
Be best to post pictures to help potential buyers fall in love with the setup.
Cheers!

it is the one with the huge manifold that puts the turbo above the valve cover, and uses the stock air cleaner i had it on my jeep for a couple days but i couldnt run it in 4wd and i really dont need the extra power it already breaks the tires loose without the turbo. so its up for sale. ill get some pics as soon as i can

Never seen this setup! It looks from the pictures that it picks up exhaust from only one side manifold, then exits out back into the same manifold?? No crossover? Or am I missing something?
Also, how in the world is it using the existing air cleaner and yet piping it back to the manifold directly under it?
Is there a turbo bypass?
Do you happen to know if factory A/C box clearance is an issue?
Any clue as to if this will fit my '83 Suburban? John?
I've been looking for a turbo but had settled on searching for the typical Banks. I'm very curious about this setup. It looks quite simple. Please fill me in!
Thanks a bunch!

it uses exhaust from both manifolds, i didnt have the crossover installed in the pics, and has a built in 3" downpipe. the turbo setup uses a special divided plenum that sits on top of the intake that pulls air from the air cleaner into the turbo. then from the turbo back to the plenum to the intake. there is no bypass on the turbo, its well matched to the 6.2 to produce quick spool up and not produce too mutch boost it will fit with a/c and it will fit a pickup, suburban, or blazer. wont fit a van.

Still asking questions!
Are there any missing parts and do happen to know if ATS still supplies parts for old systems?
I assume there is an oil feed line somewhere on there...
In your picture, what is the purpose of the 90degree fitting at the back of the intake?
How inaccessible do the injectors and glow plugs become with this setup?
Sorry for maybe some obvious questions but I'm learning about turbo systems. Never had one!

there are no missing parts, its 100% complete, even has all bolts needed to install
the oil feed line is braided stainless and runs from a tee fitting where the oil pressure sender is. the turbo dumps the oil back into the valve cover
the 90 degree fitting is where the crank case vent hooks up to, the ones on the intke manifold get blocked off
the glow plugs arent too bad, and you would probably need to remove the manifold to remove injectors, but it has better access than a factory 6.5 manifold.
Dang. Every time I see something like this it makes me want to abandon the TPI project on my CJ and drop in a 6.2/6.5 instead.
