haha I agree. Although even if i did I would still be needing the 10k or so to do this lol. Im glad we are getting some serious single turbo builds going. I would like to see a compound turbo setup on one of these.

anyone that thinks that the single turbo takes away from ANYTHING..... I'm sorry, I have to say you're incorrect. This thing is a BLAST to drive. Very responsive and it just craps horsepower and speed.

I must agree with the post above. I just recently got a chance to go for a spin in the twin scroll car that I recently built a kit for.....and it pulls hard. 10 psi at 3600rpm and from there you just hang on all the way to red line. If feels like the car came off the production floor like that (and perhaps it should have).

right now I am making 508whp, and 404wtq. the goal is to get the torque more inline with the hp.
I don't know if you have seen my dyno sheet, but the curve is very smooth, and the car drives almost like stock before boost. I know Marti wants to keep that same feel, but deliver more torque.... and for me, more power

Sounds good. I did see your graph and it was very smooth
