What kind of boost is this set up going to make? Why the hot pipe across the front instead of looped down under the engine, besides being easy?

Not sure on the boost, it's a 408, so whatever the customer wants.
The thing with a large , overdone turbo is, less back pressure, more timing, more flow.
The front cross over fits nice and easier than going under, and leaves a lot of room for a large downpipe.

The big turbo wasn't chosen for it's power potential, even though it could make 1500hp on the right engine/setup. It was chosen for highway beat downs! It'll spool up great, but even better, once it gets going, watch out!
It's going in a heavy crew cab, with lots of weight.

Thing'll be like a freight train. With a touch of 747 thrown in.
