good luck

The turbo we chose are over kill but they are the smallest t04s antisurge available by Masterpower. Still there is enough turbo flow to out perform a large trim gt45.
I hope we haven’t got greedy on the eye candy to sacrifice the performance.... but they will be quickly swapped for smaller units if that’s the case.

we leaving the intercooler size in the hands of some expert race car fabricators, They are doing a sponership deal,
When we made the mainofld we allowed plenty of room for 2.5" dumpipes, i guess they well merge just before the diff into single 3" or 4"

...i wanna see a vid when the time comes...The car is project car for an NZ high performance car DVD called "100% Driven"
You can check it out at......
http://www.100percentdriven.com/
The DVD is expected to be released in mid December,
Guys this is a great DVD that I have had the pleasure of having some involvement. I highly recommend you check it out, the guys have gone to Japan with some great drifting footage and some NZ local car scene, not to mention this project build. Check it out.

When i compare the full bridge to a large stg2 or stock port... The full bridge drives the turbos faster earlier in the rev range. so its definitly better, but i couldnt compare with half bridge sorry, I assume its better than the half bridge for responce.
we are relying on the porting for responce and the turbo compressor flow for hp. but with smaller turbos it should be more responcive, I dont think we will ever run the boost required to max the compressor flow of these turbos, So in that sence there way to big, but f#ck it... they look good!

Keep us posted, I am currently having a twin turbo kit made too. I bought two t3/to4e's from XS-Engineering. Still debating on ECU but I am leaning towards Motec M800. I am trying to figure out if I want to have both downpipes merging into one or having two downpipes going straight through to one exhaust muffler on each side which hasn't been done yet, at least I don't think so.
