Well I plan on pushing my power good bit beyond my 511rwhp while still using my single Walbro. I'm not going to argue anymore (especially with Qwick-I know he will win:icon_bigg ). I will report back my personal findings and leave it at that.
Back on the subject..Does anyone have a writeup on how they did a dual walbro install. I know SoundPerformance can make a dual walbro setup out of your existing hanger for you for about $250. I might go that rout, since I don't trust my self with fuel.
"I'm not listening to you because the "advice" you're giving for a high HP motor is a recipe for blowing up that motor...it's just not credible."
My advise was not for you anyway, it was for twincam187. It seems that your only contribution to this thread is how in love you are with Quick...
"Sorry dude, but your credibility doesn't hold a candle to our friend down under...not even close."
Oooohh, stop JTUB, I feel so incompetent now.
I'm just trying to give my best advice for Twincam on the situation.. A single Walbro is a simple install that can be used for applications in...
"LOL @ 600rwhp on 1 walbro........ ummm yeah"
Ummm, its been done...with some trick wiring...do some research..:icon_conf
And I have seen them do 550rwhp several times safely..Didn't he say 550 was his goal?
Thanks everyone.... The more power I make, the harder I relize it is to launch this pig.

Back from the track. Got in one dececent run...out of 3 tries thanks to a packed track.
1st. Too much clutch slip and a third gear bog.. 12.9 @117MPH(1.95 60ft)
2nd. Better launch, but a couple of minor bogs between shifts..12.69 @118.59mph (1.87 60ft)
3rd run (after waiting a while for the...
I replaced my badly leaking ebay BOV last night and the car is running stronger than ever. And $60 later I now have 5 gallons of C16 ready to burn. Time to represent.
I'm no turbo expert, but it looks like turbo in the pic is a 60mm, with a To4E compressor housing and .70 A/R turbine housing. Not sure on the wheel of the turbine.
Dr Jones had a very nice powerband with his SP57 (60mm wheel). He used a very small hot side (.58) while having a big .70 A/R...
the main reason you have late spool is because you have a big turbo. A T66 can support 700rwhp. DO you plan on making that kind of power. If not, why have such a big turbo in the first place.
But you are right, a smaller exhaust housing will definantly help get you get ealier spool. And more...
I wouldn't bother with any kind of upgraded manifold wile still using the CT-26. The tiny turbine housing is going to be your bottleneck anyway. Just a waste of time, effort and money IMO for very little gain.
