just got my turbo today, and had a question about the header. is it going to be a big problem if i dont make an equal lenght exhaust system?
also, im going to be running two carbs, and was wondering if the tube going from the turbo to the carbs would be ok if it was offset between the carbs. kinda hard to explain what im trying to say. kinda like a T between the two, but with the pipe a little more offset twards one carb. thanks

I understand what you're sayin'.First up, are the carbs proper turbo spec ,I assume its a blow thru system?
The headers should be a tuned length but its not that critical.

According to Dave and Judy Kawell,if you can fit equal length headers in,use them. If not, make them as short a possible. On a street car you probably won't notice a difference.
