What do you want to know about? Turbos in general? Or different twin turbo designs?

For general turbo stuff get Maximum Boost by Corky Bell ISBN 0837601606

Want I want to know is how to convert my cosmo 13b-RE twins to non seq in plain english. All I can find is info on 3rd gen. The turbos on this motor are similar but still are different. This thing has a shitload of vacuum lines and such and I havent a clue to what is what?

Im aware of the drawbacks to doing this mod, I just want a streetable car at a reduced amount of $$$'s.. Id be happy with 250hp and not have to go single...

I already ordered that book, people say its great. But im looking for something that can spoon feed me

Dunno Max, I measured and measured and it appears it will, i mean it looks very very close but looks to fit?

Now maintenace on them with the motor still installed looks impossible

By the way UPS just dropped the book off. Now its time to see if I can still speed read Used to be good at it...
