Seriously guys, I am going bananas with this! Here are my options: Option #1 I have a Fleece S366 and Fleece S480 brand new. I order my plumbing from Trent and install. Option #2 Install my S366 along with plumbing and a GT4718 MPI kit from a fellow member. Option #3 Buy complete S366 over FI Precision S488 MPI twin kit. Also from fellow member. My goal here is 10's. Motor is already built with all the bells and whistles. Been 3 years in the making. Finally will be installed within the next two weeks. What is my best option here? Advice would be greatly appreciated. Obviously if I choose either option 2 or 3 I'll sell both my Fleece turbos to help pay for the kit I buy.*

Thanks!

Like we discussed when we talked , the S366/S480 will be capable on low 11's other than on "light rigs " , I would do GT4718 or larger if you want a 100% chance at a 10 sec rig , I have never been a fan of the S400's larger than 83 mm JMOP , if we need anything larger than a S480 we jump ship on that frame.
If you want a true DD capable of 10's there are some very good options , but $$ is always a consideration , we went to doing triples for these aplications because it was the same price or cheaper than using Ball bearing Garrets or Precision charger that could provide similar results and usually Trips provided a higher HP range and drivability for the $$ .

Trent your info was invaluable:thumb: I just fell upon those 2 other kits this past week. I'm kinda leaning toward using my 366 and that GT4718. Are the 4718 and 488 almost the same size?

<<<< Under Pressure
s471 & a s510 or three 366s (most street friendly from what I've seen) or even better three s471 (= three gt4294 if the money is there). OR if you want to go really BIG, a gt4202 mated to a gt5541 (or three GT4202s :woott:) Sorry for the curve ball Nick. Trent wont steer you wrong bud.

I know it's off topic for the kits the OP is looking at, but what I have seen 3 366s can be spooled just fine on stock sticks on a tow tune, but at the same time take all the fuel 60 over sticks and 2 cp3s can throw at it and still have plenty of air left for a lot more fuel.

Lol! Wow those are some big hair dryers! If money wasn't an option at this point I'd do triples for sure. But unfortunately it is for tho season. Next season is another story;-)

Thanks Mike! Those options just made my imagination go even wilder lol!

If you already have the 66mm and 80mm chargers buy a piping kit from trent a throw it together. Get it running good and in the 11's and then for next year you can decide what chargers to buy to go faster and let trent modify the piping to accommodate your needs. Thats what i would do anyways
