Absolutely ! And you can adjust the height by removing or adding wood.

Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

Congrats! That must be the Evil Stepmother of All Turbos. How will it affect the power-to-weight-ratio?  ;)
Hmmmmmm over braps

Well it's a 1650hp capable turbo so I think the power to weight potential has gone significantly up. My other turbo was 600hp potential only

Size comparison. A 609ho capable turbo for a very fast road worthy fd rx7, versus a proper sized turbo for drag racing

2 x rx8 diff mounted in mx5 along with rx8 diff carrier and new bushings. Job like that putting the diff in a wish I had a third hand instead of a third leg
