The exhaust exits on the firewall side of the head on the Neons and the front side on the Eclipses. I wouldn't bother though, the 2G NT motors were not meant to be turboed. The ECU runs NA timing and there is no way to adjust base timing on it. It also doesn't have a MAS/MAF, which makes getting the proper fueling and running big injectors a big pain in the ass. The heads suck for power also. I dynoed a turboed GS today. Built bottom end, T3/T4 turbo, 16psi of boost, 250whp, oh boy. A friend of mine for a few years ago also had a turboed GS. He blew up a stock and built motor. He second built motor eventually made about 339whp on race gas at 27psi. It took a lot of money, parts, and time to get it to that point though. I can't more highly recommend not turbing an 2G NT, especially when there are factory turbo models of the same looking car available. The SRT-4 motor is cool though, I wouldn't take it over a DSM motor though.
