We went the the RPS Billet Triple Carbon on carbon clutch. Also went with custom twin 82mm turbos. This car will have a nice set of mickey thompson drag radials to try and put the power to the ground.

Turbos were going in front fenders, they wont fit. Josh is doing a really trick rear mount now. The turbos are precision billet 82mm.

Rear mounts work great in land speed applications.

I have heard if done right rear mounts work very well in just about all applications. Esp if you use the correct turbos. Another benefit is the air cools down more due to the travel back to the intercooler and then cools even more in the intercooler so you get really cold air, spray some meth in there and OH YEAH baby!

It wil also add weight to the rear tires to help gain traction. I bet those 82s are heavy turbos. That thing is going to fly at full boost. How much boost?

Max boost should be in the 35psi range.

Once again your attempt at sarcasm fails. I do appreciate you making a point to post in every thread I make here. It feels good to have a fan base.
