Sure. Will that someone also be able to evaluate what the worth of that is vs the cost? Handy thing to have is only handy if it is often used and not a "one off".

As opposed to a lot of the nice guys that wait for this opportunity to come before they do something naughty?

Sorry to interrupt your guys finger banging each other. To the OP, I am not aware of any turbo kits for the C4 Corvette. I've been keeping a look out for some time, and I think the closest we came was the STS Remote Mount turbo system.

I'm in.

Correct. No kits for the el98

Raptor, which was to be an STS rear type setup was about as close as HP. The conclusion on the HP setup was, basically, a pile of **** from the pics I saw. One dude who had it in his car. Total hack job. It did not even look like the one posted in the ad. He was not a happy camper.
The Raptor system was looking clean as far as that type setup goes, but the deal fell through or sumting like that, I purged those details.

So back to joenova's thought process, time to build some ****.
You can take some short cuts like using shorty headers, and making a pipe run off that to get what you want/need

I spent some time looking at subruban/s10 shorty headers to see if it could be useful. There is some SBC headers for turbos on the bay I have wondered about. They are like 800.00ish and kind of look like the Nelson racing setup. They go high.
Some other stuff out there too. Some turbo header set I bought, and some other **** I bought, no go. Cant shut the hood. No down pipe room. Thought the other day about inverting it. Who knows. Maybe. Why dick around with this? because bigger turbos. Overnight parts from japan if we have to.

My 1 off setup sitting in the box is a block hugger header, with J pipes to come back up to the valve cover area. Down pipes carefully snake between the header primaries, and under the car. Snug as a bug. Had to remove the AC system, since it sucks anyways, who cares. I don't. Sure it is F-in hot sometimes.

Intercooler is next, and joby has some good **** in his posts for dimensions and fabricating. Some other dudes on here were doing some stuff as well. Plus all the **** we discussed in the past.

I got a welder ages ago and every house I lived in, it trips the breakers.

Callaway B2K set up is probably the last thing you want to try and build since it requires a PHD in fitting 10 pounds of **** in a 1 pound bag, and a CNC machine (or not) to build new parts to move things out of the way. Also oil scavenging is important. And down low, it will not go back in the pan. Gonna need something to catch it in, and put it back.

Probably easier to just save up, and when you have enough, a Callaway might go on the market and you can just buy this fabrication nightmare complete.

well, if nobody knows of a kit, does anyone have a thread of a build series?

use this as a Google search and you will find those threads, the AND has to be in caps
