StandAlone ECU

I love that turbo setup. In my day and age that was called a turbo kit. Front mount kits puts the turbo in the bumper where say the FMIC is installed.

No,
It's called front mount because it's mounted infront of the engine. Side mount / top mount would be beside or above. Rear mount would be anywhere behind the engine.... I've never seen or heard of someone installing a turbo in the front bumper. However i once saw an explorer with a turbo inside the front fenderwell... that was weird...
 
Thats what I'm saying, ive been building turbo cars since I was 15, thats over 14 years. Only heard of turbo kit, front and rear mount, never side mount, LOL. Here is a true front mount turbo and manifold.
