think he realized it's too much trouble to make a 300hp SC system possibly too much mechanical stuff to deal with. where as the TT manifolds would be the way to go, there will be NO boost Lag due to 3 cylinder pulse on the impellers. Also the stock intake can be trashed for a more straight forward design.


times are tough right now eventually it will happen, maybe next year...

I'm remodeling part of my house right now. I should be in my new shop sometime this week. Twin turbo kit should develop quickly. There are too many negatives to the supercharger. Mainly the parasitic drag on the accessory drive worth about thirty horsepower. I'll start a new thread just before the turbo is operational.

Man I cant wait to see the final results!! I was reading about these engines on The MB website, and they claim that this engine all the way up to the SL65 I think is based off the same technology / design!
