What size turbo are you using? Is it the turbo from Warbirds kit?

Looks great, I think you will make more than 500/500 on 10psi if you are running a T76

right now there is no exaust. just the dp. the dp is going to go to a 4in cutout and then to a muffler i got off of mike brown. not sure what it is. got to wire up the fan and i then i will get to the exaust. now all i have to do is take the + from one fan and the - from the other then just hook the remaining wires to gether right? cant wait to hit the dyno then the track. wonder how long a stock rear will last?
