When the twins go to junk you pay for a used set of turbo's at $500-1k.. and have to go threw hell to get them off and back on the car. The twins will cause massive heat soak and back pressure and blow the engine easy as ****.. tell your dad to go read some of the forum or tell him to read my post.. The shop is probably lieing to your dad as well because they get to work on the car and make more $ when it blows.. Tell your dad that sombody that is 32 and has built over 30 13B's says he needs to listen to reason and ask him if he's going to pay for the new turbos when the stock twins go to **** or if he's going to pay for a new engine when it blows.

I would take a lot of work to go from a single back to the stock twins. They would need the rat's nest and all those vacuum lines (if going seq.).
Like Dragon said, going from a single setup back to the stock twins is just plain dumb.

No he doesnt have e-mail, he cant turn on a computer. But if you all call that should make an impression. And if it doesnt at least maybe it will **** him off. There is no way i'm paying for the car if it gets twins agin. My dad is a royal retard. He feels the T04E is too powerfull but the Non-S twins push the same power just they have 99million more probs. I cant stand stupid people either imagine how i feel livin with him.

I was going to say, you could sell the T04E and get upgraded twins. I know its not the same for the reasons stated, but you can get the same power and your dad will be happy cuz you have "twin turbos".

No he is working with the shop to **** me. He is making sure they dont give me too much power becuase you can push over 400 with twins. It's just a bunch of ****. And i'm ot paying for a car that he does this to. That's why i'm 99% sure i'm goin to lose the 7.

I'm in Japan.. lol... so a phone call to the states would be a bit costly.. Here's what you do... you tell your dad if he goes back to the stock twins then you'll just have to scrape up $300 or so and buy a 150 shot of Nitrous Oxide.. or better yet tell him you found sombody thats going to give you there old system for free.. lol
Also what shop is it that your going threw? We'll put the word out to boycott them because it sounds like they filling your dad's head with a bunch of **** so they can make more $.. So we'll make it so they make less $...
