But the weight of the full exhaust!? is it worth it!?
I like this comment
The second turbo makes up for that bit of weight id say.

I have been tracking your progress and have also taken on a Compound turbo kit build. It is on a 2010 Genesis coupe 2.0t. Please check out my build thread.

Well, I've had the full 3" exhaust on there for a long time now, so simply adding a cut-out and another 24" of pipe wasn't really that much more weight or mass. BUT, I will say that the side exit portion is MUCH quieter than I had anticipated. That second turbine housing in the exhaust stream sure does act as a muffler by itself. I'm willing to bet that I do 95% of my driving with the cut-out open. Being that is dumps outside of the car's body, I don't get any nasty resonance, and so it's not too bad to drive with it open. The full exhaust is noticeably quieter, and it is nice to have for those days when I'm driving with a headache or when there's alot of cops around. But in all honesty, I plan to build another compound set-up this coming winter, and I'll more than likely ditch my full exhaust and do a side exit only on it. As quiet as it is with two turbine housings, it really almost is a waste having a full turbo-back that only gets used 5% of the time.But the weight of the full exhaust!? is it worth it!?
Thanks Carlos! Also, check out this thread of you get a minute; it's basically all of the details of my evac set-up.Looks amazing Paul!
Great build, man. And welcome to DSMtuners!I have been tracking your progress and have also taken on a Compound turbo kit build. It is on a 2010 Genesis coupe 2.0t. Please check out my build thread.

You would have received the same consensus here about 6 years ago. As time progresses, the bar gets raised. Opinions change and bigger stuff becomes the norm. It's like that with any car platform.at the guy who thinks an ACT2600 is too stiff of a clutch for a daily driver. He must be a 105lb woman.
I do have the car back together. I just need to tie up a small handful of loose ends before it's truely roadworthy. Parts should be in tomorrow, so I'll hopefully be fine tuning it on SD very soon. If all goes well, I'll try to hit up the dyno toward the end of this month.

Thanks, Andy.This ####in bad ass, Paul- complete DOPE...
I hope not! I haven't experienced an AWD tranny failure yet, and I've got my fingers crossed! If I do wipe one out, I won't be surprised though. I'm lucky that I've got TRE about 40 minutes down the road.That is one bad ass tranny killing machine!
Thanks, Andy.

Definitely go for the .63 a/r housing instead. Your primary turbo (smaller turbo) needs to have a turbine housing and wastegate size to support the exhaust flow associated with the total amount of power you'll be making. That's why I recommend a larger turbine housing and the use of the 60mm gate on the T3 turbo.I was going to originally do the Gt28 but opt'ed for the t3 because of the choking flow issue. Will the exhaust side matter after the manifold bypasses the t3? I wanted quick spool but if it does restrict flow I will opt to upgrade exhaust side .68 a/r?
I'm sure Tim does excellent work, but no, TRE of Kalamazoo is who I was referring to. They're just so close - it's difficult to justify using someone else. My current tranny is TRE build and I've been quite happy with it.You mean TMZ?
I feed my T4 turbo from the oil filter housing, and my 16G from the head. And I welded dual -10 bungs on the pan for individual returns.How did you plum the oil feed and return line? Did you T?
Are you so sure that it nets similar ?
