I know you don't wanna hear it 'cause your mind seems pretty set, but you're gonna have to put a good bit of work into running both of your turbo's on your engine, and I just don't see how you're gonna benefit from it too much...not with the engine you have and the way it's already setup. Me personally, I'd be content with what I have and just step up to a bigger turbo, especially if you already have a built engine...

Actually its VG30E but thats besides the point. I didn't mean it like that to get 20psi. I will be running around 20psi. Ive started on the headers and decided to just save up and do GT2860R that way don't have to worry about the ceramic wheels and gain BB. Just need around $1600. Its a winter project so maybe when get farther along will post up in fab section. Do have 2 T28s to mock up with.
