Yeah Paul, I'm just not convinced I'll be happy with high flowed twins for the outlay. I assume that price is for each turbo, like CGC etc. So that'd make it nearly $4000 for the full monty.

I think they re a realistic option for a street car where appearance is important, but there is no upgradability going down that path. I mean If I go single, and want a bigger tubo, it is a reasonably small spend to swap housings, swap turbos etc as opposed to spending thousands on high flow twins, and then having to spend thousands later on to go single.

On the up side, I guess you'd save on manifolds and piping, external wastegates etc.



In other news the first Time attack event is this sunday. The car is still on blocks, and I never even entered. Where does the time go? I am going to go out and have a look and make some enquiries etc.

I am also being formally 'inducted' into the SCCSA tomorrow in the city. Aparently the club house is pretty impressive.
