Hey Guys, sorry I haven't posted in a while. I haven't had a lot of news to post.
Chris (Chrisman) has been busy with a couple other projects.

Chris has been trying to complete 2 TT SC 400's at the shop at the same time.
Both cars are gonna have a lot of stuff very simular, but are different in alot of ways too, which makes creating a kit that will work with both of them difficult.

Here are a couple pictures I took today of the kit.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Bob

Thanks guys!
The intercooler is "Big"!!
It's 2 garret cores 4 1/2 thick bar n plate with an up/down flow vs cross flow. Should be good for some "BIG" Numbers ;-) Wink Wink!

I really like the turbo mounting configuration - clean and symmetric! BTW, where did you plumb the wastegates?

Nice project!

Thanks guys!
Hey Scott nice job noticing no wastgates, and thats just it. No wastgates.
I'm gonna try and very the boost only so the turbos don't slow down as much during shifts.
it makes the setup clean.
