Boost response is gonna be amazing.

Good luck with it mate, should be very interesting! I'll be interested to see how it all fits in the engine bay and what sort of exhaust system you use.

Piping gets very complicated, but I cant see Leigh having any dramas there.We used to do TT's on Eseries fords years ago, spool up on similar turbos was instant, the only draw back with the small turbos is they choke top end as the motor cant breath and pass enough air through the small exhaust housings... but using the small ones to get started and tweak the base system is a good idea, see where they choke the motor and figure out a sizing for the next turbos.Should be very responsive and powerfull when fully sorted!

I think a few people have looked at doing it but were probably put off by the extra costs. I looked at a twin GT3582 setup recently but it was going to be 3 or so k extra work. Money for the trans
