Well, my friend has just upgraded his 300zx to stage 9, and gave me his old t22 turbos. What do you guys think i should do here? A single turbo setup is looking very possibly, but a twin setup probably won't happen. All i need now is a downpipe, intercooler, a custom exhaust manifold and a lot of patience.

Speaking of es300's and turbo's -- has anyone seen an es300 from toledo that's got a single turbo? He was at kil-kare speedway a while ago, and i believe he was running 12 second 1/4 miles.

Question

I'm assuming that's something completely custom and expensive.
