revisiting turbo isf's
I don't know, I am still suspect of rear mounted turbos. Doesn't all that pipe run, decrease efficiency? I would also think the number one thing you want is for COOLING. Running those pipes in that location would have to increase HEAT significantly correct? I also think until someone can solve the wheel spin / transmission torque slip issues, you can have all the HP / TQ you want, but if you can't GRIP, you can't go. JMO! I'll wait until someone has all the kinks worked out. Hey maybe you will be the first. Good Luck! I bet that thing sounds crazy seexxxxxy though. I applaud you for your courage and dedication for more power.
fleadog- believe it or not i originaly thought the intake air tempt was going to be affecting big time. but i did a before the turbos and after. i had a k&n intake on it and air tempt was about 98 degrees. after the turbos the air intake tempt is anywhere from 98 to 101. which honestly is not a huge difference. the added torque and wheel spin is unreal. i have a 90 fox body that does 10.2 and that thing even with slicks still spins. on a highway roll the f is not bad just cant start from a dig. i love the sound.
does anyone have insight on the icode stuff??

its 6psi, ya the car does not lean out, but full boost i afr drops to 11.0 11.5 without the methanol on. if i have the methanol turned on itll go to 10.0, i guess its a very good thing its running rich rather than having it lean out and having problems.
Ya, its a very good problem considering that you should be able to run in the 600hp range on pump gas.
theres no chinese made stuff on this kit, its all high quality stainless piping and turbonetics ball beating turbos. all the lines and fitting are all high quality and fitment is great. i have not had issues installing on the vehicle. thanks for the support
