All show and no go huh?...To be honest, my engine bay is LESS cluttered after taking out those stupid unreliable not making enough horsepower stock twins.



I make WAY more horsepower with my 62-1, have lower underhood temps, have more reliability, and have more of an advantage when I turn the boost up to 1.3 Kilos vs. ANY stock twins...BNR or not.



SINGLE TURBO = SIMPLE

SIMPLE = LESS CLUTTER

LESS CLUTTER= LESS **** THAT CAN GET FUCKED UP

LESS **** THAT CAN GET FUCKED UP = LESS MONEY I HAVE TO SPEND ON REPAIRING THE FUCKED UP ****

LESS MONEY I HAVE TO SPEND ON REPAIRING THE FUCKED UP **** = MORE MONEY TO BUY GO FASTER PARTS.

first off this is a great thread, thanks mazdabation for starting it, it was pretty much alot of the same questions I was spewing, but here's my question, anybody got sites to check specs on individual turbo's? Manufacturer websites, etc? Price's are especially nice, or should I just go bother a shop owner? hehe...



Ah well, I think the GT 35/40 sounds the nicest to me, I want quick low-end and a moderate high-end, anyone have a comparison to the BNR upgraded twins vs. the GT 35/40 in terms of HP/lag?

I've ridden in T-0R4's boost 1.3 Kilos+ with ported engine and let me tell you....it's pretty frightening.

1.3 kilograms = ~4 lbs

What Kind of Lag are you looking out with a set up like that? Is it strip only and not streetable? Looks strip only to me.

I love upgraded twin. But the reliability of a single turbo is promising.
