    Hey it's a "What about this combo?" thread!!!

    I'm looking for opinions because I'm at a crossroads. I have been collecting parts for my turbo build for about a year and of course keep dreaming bigger. So far I have a Holset HX35W set at 20psi, a Mighty Demon 650 Blow thru, an intercooler from a 135i twin turbo, a 52mm BOV, hedman tight...

    Twin scroll is it necessary to separate the cylinders on a V8?

    Hiya, so on a twin scroll design where the turbine housing is divided to separate the exhaust pulses do you think it is necessary when used on a V8 to channel the manifold all the way to the flange? wont it pulse since it is only getting half of the exhaust anyway? It seems like the problem it...

    Can anyone explain BOV spring ratings to me?

    Ok so best I can figure it in a twin Turbo blow through system that uses a single fmic only one BOV is necessary as it is plumbed into the intake pipe before the plenum and after the fmic, that being said most of the BOVs I have seen the springs are rated at 11psi or less.

BG would not give me any info...

    Single turbo on dual exhaust

    So I'm just toying with the idea of Turbo now that I missed the season and have a lot of time to go further in debt. I don't think I can afford to do a twin turbo, I have about $2000 for this, also I think a single turbo with the nitrous will be sufficient especially because too much boost puts...
