Re: got turbines?
Nice turbos. Those look like they can push a decent amount of air. My turbo had some gay flange like that too. I just had a piece of aluminum tubing welded to the inlet. Only cost me like ten bucks at a machine shop.
Just noticed you were tlaking about the exhaust inlet flange. That thing is weird, good luck with that.
Btw, where do you go shooting? I live in beaverton and have to drive halfway to seaside for a decent place to shoot, and it's not nearly as open.

Re: got turbines?
the rifle is a 22LR 
i have both the turbo inlets, im not going to use them because they have a lot of gay emissions crap sitting on them, unless i want to block them off. i also have both the stock downpipes, with a lil peice of pipe still left so i can easily weld my downpipe up.
the turbos are kinda small... .42/.48, im sure they will spool at idle, but this is a stock 5 liter motor and the heads are stockers, but will be ported. you should see the size of the exhaust ports/intake ports/exhaust valves its almost cartoonish. i'll take some pictures today...
i hope they spool at idle cause that is where this engine makes power 1200 - 5000

unless johnny's trying to make some crazy hp gains from em, I dont see them being a bottleneck in his setup.
