Is it auto or manual? I've been told for turbo cars it makes a difference

We put a Boost Brother's sn-95 kit onto my brother's fox. It has an On3 turbo in it. Only issue we had was a frame clearance issues, probably due to the sn-95 kit into the fox chassis. As for the oil filter we put on one of the Ford Racing 90 degree oil filter adapters and turned it down and toward the front a little. Had a couple oil leak issues at the turbo also but we think it was because he didn't have an oil restrictor on it and couldn't get the AN lines tight enough due to the angle of the drain tube and the charge outlet of the turbo having to be clocked so sharply.

Just a few minor irritants to work out but other than that been a decent setup and makes good power. Getting ready to put a windsor motor in it then have to get it retuned.

maybe on a n/a car but not a well built turbo car
