Best looking turbo/DP placement by far but from my experience with the Lovefab GT-1 that looks very similar, it works great except for the DP is prone to cracking with it routing in that direction. Plus it seems to cause worse vibrations. I believe that's why FR went with the turbo turned and DP going under instead of over.

looks very track forge ish. coming from a guy that has the FBM older version kit. its not that big a deal to relocate stuff but would have made install easier lol. i cant say enough good things about mine. i am still very happy. i wonder what this would go for with a efr turbo instead. i just hate precision turbos based on all the bad press they got on here. so kinda ignorant reason to hate them, but hey, its murica. BORG FOR LIFE.

I've never heard of the downpipe cracking on a trackforged or kings setup

huh, Ptuning?
