Question Two HT15 Turbos????

Hey everyone,

I was recently talking to my mechanic, and he suggested converting to two HT15 turbos (blue-printed, balanced, polished, ported...etc) in non-sequential. I have searched around, but could not see if anyone has ever attempted this. He is also putting in a tubular-style header, with a race waste gate. Can anybody tell me how feasible this is???? I totally trust my mechanic, but would like to hear from the rest of you. My biggest concern is whether it will be too much custom fab work (translated...I'm not rich). Thanks for any help!

I've heard the HT-15 mistakenly used to describe the HT-18, which was the large secondary turbo used on the Cosmo. I haven't heard much about actual HT-15's. It sounds like it would be expensive ... you're better off going with either the BnR or M2 upgraded twins. Or a single turbo.

HT-18 is a Turbo II turbo.

If you want my opinion, its time to find another mechanic.
