man it looks cramped in there, but your setup does look betterthan most especiallt since you have the ltcc mod which usually leaves a wiring night mare undert he hood.

Indeed! Not sure if anyone read a recent post, had problems holding boost past 17psi. I just figured out the problem, after about 17psi the deta p before and after the intercooler nets about 3psi drop. I ended up looping all the signal lines for the wastegates together at the throttle body and walla! I held 19psi all the way to 7K.

Im going to hit the dyno probably this month sometime, I will let ya know how it does.

Damn turbos are fun! I can seem to get rid of this face though

Never mind i see them...

I wish you could keep the accessories on these cars and still have a twin setup.

I like twins because we just picked up two T-3's out of the junkyard for my friends mustang for $150 for both.. We got the best 2 out of 20 too so they don't look like a rebuild is nessisary

What else would you want, I have everything but the A/c which I never used when it was on the car. Alternater and power steering pump are both mounted low

i'm actually into the fully funtional car thing with great gas mileage and still put down a crap load of power..

It would be awesome if i could do a twin setup on a car and keep the functionallity alone like ac... good idle... yet make crap loads of power on boost.

I sorta do that with my eaton car now.. it makes great power (got to be somewhere in the 11's) and gets almost 18 in city type driving.

Thats what the turbos are all about! They dont require large cams to make power. My car is about as loud as a stock z28 with exhaust. When most people hear the car they assume its a mostly stock motor with a mild cam and exhaust. As for idle, it does the same as when the car was stock. As for gas milage, I have 72# injectors and maintain 18 mph on the freeway. However the 72# injectors are over there head. I need 96#ers to make the full potential out of the car.

Just out of curiosity have you seen any twin turbo 4th gens? Like maybe mount the turbos near the end of the stock manifolds?

I guess the gravity feed back would be a problem then

Damn this under hood room!
