Turbo Question

How come turbos don't have headers for the exhaust system? Is it because of the pressure or something from the turbo? I'd figure better flowing exhaust would help the performance of your car ....

dude, turbos have DOWNPIPES, the exhaust does not come off the engine, it comes off the exit side of the turbine, on a non turbo (n/a, normally aspirated) engine the exhaust exits straight off the block
is there like a b00n site for turbos. it might help, lemme dig something up.
