So a new type of bumper for a normal turbo would be required?

I rebuilt my OEM bumper with a large central outlet instead of two.
Plastic coated OEM holes and finished with a carbon fiber cover to protect the bumper from the heat.

I am in the middle of deciding what to do exhaust wise... I have some fab skills and welding equipment (doesn't mean I'm great)

The body work portion adds a ton of work as much as I love it and Tim's set up!

The funny thing about my solution is that it was done long before Porsche did the same solution on the 997 GT3
