Im thinking ab using the CX Racing twin turbo with single top exit. I've heard good things ab them and I'm only going to be around 800rwhp. I do like the Treadstone one with the 45° angle top exit but for $400+ it's twice the cost.

I doubt Ill be going over 8/900rwhp. Plus its not a track car. Just a highway queen so for me, it should be fine.

Same one I have, only 1.5psi drop at 30psi(when boost spiked), normally ran at 25psi, going from 110 degree iats to 210 degree iats or so(have to look at logs again for exact numbers) over a full track pass running the 8.3's in my mustang at 171.99mph with twin 76mm turbos. Unless you are wanting every bit of power, just run the treadstone.

Wish I could give you some results. My car isn't ready yet. I will say the quality of Treadstone intercoolers are really good. I've heard nothing but good things and for the price it's hard to beat.
