Default Homemade turbo on 2000 EX

Will I still be able to use A/C/pwer steering if I used an HF manifold bolted to a t25 or 14b to create a homemade turbo??

how does the adapter plate need to be made to keep a/c? how should the turbo be mounted? with the the compressor on the driver, or the passenger side?

$1200 for the kit, just add fuel management! Which shouldn't be too much more, depending on the route you go.

Email works too.

if you know someone who can customize one for you. so you can spin your turbo so it wont hit the a/c.. it very hard to explain.... your better off just buying a manifold that will clear and go home kit the rest of the way...

compressor on the drivers side.. the down pipe will have less bends to clear the oil pan..
