Rats Nest?

Ok this isnt a 3rd gen motor its a Cosmo 13b-RE, but they are very similar... I'll be first to admit I am turbo STUPID... But how much of this crap is necessary? I wanna (?) retain the stock twins, and possibly run them non seq. Do I have to keep any of this crap? Can it be totally eliminated?

PLEASE HELP!

Well... stock twins you will need some of it... non-seq probably none of it... that actually looks really clean compared to the 13B-REWs.

There is a site that might give you some info on it even though the engines are a little different. As long as your not worried about passing emissions then you shouldn't have much to worry about.

Thanx 7-sins... This is my first turbo, . Im not used to being the moron of the class. In my line of work im 'top of the class' or so I like to think... (im in professional car stereo installation)

I think im gonna buy some books on tubos and try to understand the workings of them before I atempt this task. I definately wanna run them non seq with my Haltech E6k. I have fully rebuilt carbs, trannys, and rotarys , but this is a new one on me..

THANX AGAIN
If you know of anymore links that could help me, Id be appreciative,,,


MIKE

Sorry no info for ya Mike but I must say... Your the first guy I've ever seen that admits he doesn't know much but yet has the brains to get a book and learn. Good luck to ya with whatever your project may turn into!

Yes Nick, I have learned in my few years on this planet (im 30) that if you havent the proper tools or knowledge your better off not contemplating doing it anyways. If I eventually end up biting the bullet and spending a lot of cash on a single then at least Ill understand the workings for the next person. We are all here to help each other, I just learned look/learn/listen and then take it apart
