Want2race - Which twins R U using?

Curious to know what is happening with all of the problems you are having.

I am at the stage where I don't know if I want upgraded twins or a single.


Gun -

I have been looking into upgraded twins...there is a very recent thread that has some info on the M2 twins.

https://www.rx7club.com/vforums/show...threadid=22375

Not too sure how to link another thread...if the above doesn't work just go back to October 4th posting date and look for capt. bill1 's post "M2 Twin..."

I'm planning on modifying a spare set of stock twins that I have to take T04B T5/6 compressor wheels. They are significantly larger than the stock wheels. Ofcourse I will also try to use larger shafts. The compressor housings would need to be opened up to accept the larger wheels. Anywho, I'm just experimenting.
