I've considered moving them but I am not sure just yet. The compressor side doesn't reach near the temps the turbine side does plus I am going to move the turbos back towards the firewall away from the coils. My SRT4 reaches EGT's in the 1700's and the hot side of the turbo is a mere inches from the factory coil pack. I hope that GM manufactured a decent enough coil to rival Dodge's reliability. I'll probably just make a little stainless heat shield for the coils for the time being.
