The reason why they cost so much because they include more than your average turbo kit.

Is it just me or is that manifold absolutely not equal length? I swear it seems these manufacturers are creating the craziest designs to prevent counterfeiting of their products. That's obviously not a bad thing, but the design looks a bit excessive.

There are a couple of local shops out there that are experimenting with the twin scroll design... I'm sure in a couple of months everyone will offer one of these designs in their kit.

id say that twin scroll has been around for quite awhile...way better than ball bearing/dual, but like was stated already it just took a descent company to make a kit for the evo, if i could afford that kit it would already be on my evo

if you boost XXPSI and hit 600whp by 7500 and i hit 550 whp 2K sooner, whos faster around the track? (based soley on that, not driver and mods...)

The charts that Geoff posted don't show anything near a 2k spool difference a couple hundred RPM with much better throttle response and similiar peak. Without a doubt if have 2 turbos and both make within 50whp of each other but 1 spools up 2000rpms faster than the other I would say you have a winner.

might want to read a little more carefully...that was definately a for instance post...not real values

I'm wondering how they plumb around the AC and also am curious as to how well that IC will work as longer rows allow for a larger delta T because of time for heat transfer to occur...

Ya think? My point was a twin scroll design is beneficial but nothing like that example.
