Actually that's how every turbo system is plumbed, it can't work any other way. This is why a cold air intake is unnecessary on an intercooled turbo car.Originally posted by esmith13

Regarding the lightened flywheel, if your turbo is properly sized you should not need a lightened flywheel. Typically it's not a good idea to have too light a flywheel in a turbo car, espcially in a car like a civic. Yes, it may make you rev a bit faster, but inbetween shifts you're going to drop out of boost even faster, causing a poor transition between gears. In other words you're going to bog. You think your car's hard to launch now? Just wait.
