You know what, we were just as surprised at how quick the turbos spooled up ourselves. We were guessing at around 5500rpm. **** I even told Erik Gaudi, and Martin over at AMS I thought it would be a laggy ****. Sure as hell it spools 20psi at 4K rpm. I should be going to the shop today or tomorrow to drop off some stuff, so I will grab the time slip out of the car and post it up. Apparently I should have done a whole documentary on the kit, as it would have saved me some typing time.


There's always got to be one in a crowd. I'm not selling 100 of these things, and it will never be massed produced. This is a one off project, which was a lot of fun to do. This is why I don't even mention the shop name, because it was more of two friends getting together and trying something new. It ended up working a LOT better than we had anticipated, but now we have to move onto a different setup for a nopi event comming up.

No worrries man, I really do wish I had more time to mess around with this kit and get some more track time and even some dyno numbers. I'm sure someone will get that done after they give it a go though. I hope at least, I really want to see this thing maxed out.

People buy crap from lots of people before they see a timeslip. Anyone see a timeslip from the 'White Rabbit'. Everyone wants one though. Dyno numbers dont really tell much because every dyno is different and they can be tweaked. If you dont trust companies with prestige names than who do you trust to buy parts from? Noname companies that show you dynochats or timeslips of a random car? Or maybe only the ones that show video proof (Even though its not like they show you whats really in the car, the tune or the type of gas).

I just don't understand. I mean all you're doing is creating much more rotational mass to get moving. Undoubtedly the spool will be slower than a well sized single turbo. Ultimately it may still make a lot of power but physics seems to say that this is a bad idea for low/midrange torque. Props for trying something unique though.....I guess.

Give this guy some credit for trying something different. It easy to slap on an aftermarket turbo, it's cool to see people experimenting with different setups.

You are absolutly correct. Although in theory it should also make some great hp. Like I stated previously I really expected the kit to be a lag monster, but we were completley wrong. Boost response was better than my SC61 T3/T4 turbo.

Also the kit has been sold, and I hope the new owner will be able to unleash this kit, and show what it can do.

I agree, I can't see a real benefit!
