Seriously, or somewhat. The most important thing I see, is getting away from the T3 ped and moving up to the T4. Drive pressure kills pistons. Some big (2") custom riser pipes couldn't hurt either. I spoke to a Dmax engine builder today who is running a smaller 2.8 charger on a T4 housing. He/She said it spools faster and makes more power than the 3.0 charger he/she was running (credible source). 1,400 max egt's. So, where should we go? Twins? I'm Not convenced yet. We are alway's so concerned about intake flow and frequently forget about the exhaust side of the charger. When heated air packs up against the charger it get's hotter. (egt's). Efficiency applies to both sides of boost maker.
What are everyones thoughts on buying a used turbo? Good idea or too risky better to buy a new one.
I've had the HTT on for a year and a half it works great for towing, know that I'm going to get into truck pulling I'm going to build compound twins using the HTT and the larger turbo is also from HTT. Hopefully I get time to start fabbing it together.

Sorry to bring this one back from the grave but anyone disagree with this?
thats what i thought too but just wanted to make sure. I don't see dp floating my valves. Just got boost up with 53 average vane angle through 4th gear so i thought i would ask :roflmao:
