The sound that the camera picked up wasn't even close to what we were hearing. That dyno video is a poor tool to judge from. My BOVs are actually quite loud in person and seem to be sufficient in preventing compressor surge.wow, what kinda blow off's you got and where are they located? sounds like it's not releiveing a whole lot of pressue.. but 47psi is massive for any motor /turbo setup..
I'm not sure what you mean by "tightened up", but these compressors would never be able to compress enough air to support 1400 WHP. Never in my wildest dreams. I'd say this system would be good for 700-750 WHP max.this car properly tightened up.. i feel could push beyond 1400whp
I sold the set-up and have begun fabricating a new configuration. I'm completely sold on compound turbocharging, but I wanted to change a few things for the next season.whats this about not running the same turbo's again?
Thanks man.Awesome work and truly impressive results Paul. Car sounds amazing and I can only imagine how fun it must be to drive.
Ever consider making kits for market?
The wire tuck is clean, amd I agree with you on the eyesore. I would love a write-up on how you put the fuse box in the glove box
I ran into the problem with keeping belts intact with my e316g I wouldn't imagine it would even be possible on your beast. Every pull I made one belt or another was shredding to pieces...
Since this thread is about compound turbo, why not tell us a little about why you ditched this setup and going with a new one. If would start out from scratch what would you change, and what are you changing with the new setup? Are you running into problems with tuning with the compound? What are the real benifits with going this route besides the obvious power band?
From your dyno graph it looks as though it starts to pull really hard at 4k, how does it feel below 4k? Just curious what kind of mpg are you getting, or is that even a viable question?
You said that now that you are into compound you wouldn't go back, is there a specific reason or does it go back to the obvious? Have you considered going auto with that much power? What are the chances of us getting a street video?
I'm switching to hydro-electric power steering this winter, so that allows me to ditch the pesky factory mechanical pump. And the alternator will be relocated to the rear of the block. So, that will afford me much more area in the front of the engine bay to configure the turbos in a way that I couldn't before.Since this thread is about compound turbo, why not tell us a little about why you ditched this setup and going with a new one.

I busted my 2600 ACT at around 350lb/tq. Yours is still holding at that power level with that much tq and hitting at such a low RPM. Just amazing. Great work.
Twin disc setups are great if you plan on replacing synchros every year. I would love to see a compound setup with an Auto trans. That would be crazy off the launch!!
ive seen people make almost those numbers on alot less psi, and pump gas, all that psi should be pointing towards more HP if you ask me.
