i know that's K series ok??

I'm asking if there are any side mount made for the L15

not that i can see for the l15, we are barely lucky enough to get a turbo kit.

i have the ability to fabricate one though..... interested?

im interested to see this, but there is no damn room in the fit engine bay. its the size of a shoebox!

just relocate the battery

haha true that, but the most space is behind the engine.

relocate the battery is the only way to go !

the placement of the throttle body over the valve cover is also a concern for clearance of the turbo piping.

so true

somebody should make a manifold that extends straight out from the ports
that will provide more clearance to access the turbo

that would be easy enough but you would need to extend some vacuum lines and so wires for the throttle body. i wish i could have a test fit cause i would whip this out quickly since i know there is interest out there.

deposit lots of money in my accout and i'll build a complete setup for you.

but the big thing to remember is unless you want to build the block to handle the power of a nice setup, its a waste of money unless your just going for the bling factor.

most sidemounts are setup for big turbo's since there isn't enough room behind the engine for a decent sized turbo.
