BTW, that rusty turbo is for sale if anyone is interested. I bought another pair and have no use for that one.

thanks guys.. I'm pretty sure this whole thing will fit under the hood. Last time I fitted it it only had one turbo so I just took existing pipings and cut them shorter and stuff. My heads are being ported so I have to wait till the end of the month to drop the motor back in

Ahh, great minds think alike. What kind of A/R are you running on them? Can you drop me a PM/e-mail w/ some info on how yours is constructed? I'm really interested in your setup (since it's almost identical to mine).

My exhaust a/r is 1.15 and intake is .60. I know my exhaust is high and I just found out after talking to my tuner. I was told this a/r would be good to keep exhaust temps down but then after talking to my tuner he said although that was true I would end up with a bit more lag, quite a bit more actually. I'm hoping that 175ci will move each turbo. As long as I get full boost before 5000 rpms I will be fine until I get my real motor/turbo setup.

I built my headers from 18gauge 1.75" piping which I'm going to toss as well after I get my other setup going. I will most likely go with 1 5/8" stainless 16gauge.
