(AustinsCE "So, what about a Twin/Bi turbo setup? Any research into that? Or just whats already available?")
I have actually found a company that has this setup. For the kit: About $5,500. For a fitted kit: About $6,500. (these are direct bolt on appilcations I've been told) One reason for the difference in price is I think one is done by turbo mapping but I'm not sure. There is a pretty nice increase in performance, but if you get just one turbo that will handle the job, it will be cheaper than buying two. Unless you wanna open that hood and make somebody's jaw drop saying: "Twin Turbo " Either way, you'll be happy. You just want to find out if it's worth the $ for the twin or single. Again overall what matters is what kind of turbo and how much power can it produce, because the t3/t4 hybrid itself is capable of 400hp!! Thank you, benzito190 for the kit! Like I have said, just make sure your car will be capable of taking the boost if you decide to go with better and bigger turbo(s). Have fun! Let me know how your project goes! Here's the site: http://www.tdi-plc.com/Merc190class.html They also have a traction control available!! They are quite spendy but it's cheaper than Flying tigers kit which is over 12k!! For anyone looking for a cold air intake here's a site: http://wade************************/ |

I'm actually familiar with that site, I dont like turbo lag, at all, even cars that "have no noticeable lag" (like my Audi TT) lag too much, thats why I like the twin turbo setup, hell I'm sure the 16V trans and 3.69 would be sufficient, but why stop there? I was hoping to have a manifold made maybe from this benzito. Even if I decide on a supercharger, I need some stuff made. Does he not come here anymore or something? Whats the best way to contact him?

Just email me the info and I'll see what he says! By the way, i've been having a little trouble with my motor going to have about 400hp I need to work on the tranny also. Do you know of anyone or anything I could do to make sure it's able to take the power? |

Fraid not on the trans. I hate autos, hence the conversion I'm doing. The 16V is supposed to take 350HP, with a real good clutch/flywheel it might do the trick. Now find one Or theres a lot of talk on the V8 conversion thread who knows what comes of it, maybe a T56. Automatics though, I have no advice sorry. I'll shoot you an email.
