How much was all that?
Running non sequential I take it.

You could get 375whp with those I imagine with a proper tune and port job, faaast spool too.

375 is a lot of power even on an FD... you'd really be pushing those things. Fat chance getting anywhere close to that.

Sequential is fine if they are modified to run without the FD vacuum hose mess.

I've seen more than a few FD's dyno charts with 350-380rwhp with a good tune, stock twins.

Holy **** man thats crazy in the 3 years ive been on this forum ive never seen someone put the stock twins off of an FD on a N/A! Thats awsome i hope everything goes well for you and youve covered all your bases for going that route. If everything goes well id say you be beating out Aaron here for custom work with those twins on an N/A. Thats a lot of work.

SO yeah what kinda spacer are you gonna run. What kind of injectors. And your gonna need something more than a fuel controller if you want to run that kind of power IMHO.

I know a 6 port twin turbo motor

I don't think he is as crazy as Aaron with paint and neatness.


oh yea grey, you better start reading everything you can on this forum about twins in the third gen section and about custom turbo setups.

Everything you read will make you undestand extra things you might not have thought of.

Actually i was thinking more along the lines of getting that monster to even hook up to the existing oil and colling system on the N/A. Aaron had to completly customize that part of his engine to get oil and collant flow through the turbo. The TII has a diffrent oil and collant system than N/A's so it would take some fabbing to get lines to go to the twin turbos. Also how the hell would you hook up the intake side of that turbo with the stock manifold of an N/A?? I mean theres just so many variables here i really think you need to look into this some more, and your defetly going to need more than just an SAFC.
