Good thinking Mike. If I go with the stock turbo on the Cruiser

I will bring the exhaust 180 degrees out the side of the cowl near the front.
The turbo turbine would then be near the front and the compressor near the
back.
It will look like it has  a mini PT6 :-) I am working on a drawing now.

I've been thinking the same thing for my turbo RV-6 except more like a 90 deg
tun straight down and out with the stock heat shields over the turbo and
manifold.  This will leave only a few inches of exhaust pipe inside the cowl.

Just like the Mecan Air :-)
