Yeah turbos are a decent size. Two 62mm turbos. The advantage, no clue. It was one of those no one was doing it so I figure why not. Plus it looks cool lol

The car is running. Break in phase now.
This was all custom built. No kit.

Looks like the charge pipe goes directly to the manifold. Are you not cooling the compressed air?

Advantages? Performance wise there are zero, its actually a much worse setup for heat soak. So clearly as you stated, you're build looks to be going for "looks" vs functionality. While looking cool, it surely won't be running "cool", haha.

GL w/ the build!

Bigger turbos.

I never stated I was going for looks. I said it looks cool.

We thought about how hot it will get for the past four years.

The cars running. If it doesn't rain out I'll be bringing few cars down to TX2k. Hope to see everyone there.

Especially the apparent 1000whp guy here on the forums.
