Mecham,

What are the two large black hoses going to. One looks like it is running from the passenger valve cover to somewhere and the other one I can't tell.

What are they? Do they go to a vacuum pump or the turbo inlet?

Very nice! That race video says you were twin turbo'd, was that a mistake or did you give one up? What rpm are you making full boost at on the high boost setting? What are your current hp/tq numbers? Your dyno vid sounds like the turbo is spooled fairly quickly so im just curious.
