It's been a while, but while I was gone we had Twins!!!!



























Twin 88's that is!!!



As I posted earlier I will be able to run twins or a single. All I'll have to do is switch out the cradle in which the turbos are mounted on and a bit of plumbing.

Here's a few of pics of my intercooler.
