mitchells twins are on!!!

well guys 1st off i want to say the kurts b-1 is a great turbo, but if one is good, two has to be better right?

i got dave's twins on and it took me about 15min to blow a head gasket.

since i couldn't get my motor o-ringed i put a stock one back in it and rigged up a wastegaste. i'm keeping the boost at about 55psi and i have a light gray haze and that's it. so now i have a new problem i need more fuel!!!

these gave me 55hp on the same dyno more than the b-1 and the 40. i now need to go back to the drawing board with my n2o since i don't have any smoke i'm going to have to de tune the gas.

these things spool so fast it's kind of scary. egt's are down about 200 over the b-1 but i can still bury it on 5-5 at 1500. the kit was great it took me about 10 hours to install it. i will say this is the nicest set of turbo's i have ever driven. there are spendy but they are great. http://www.enterpriseengine.com/
