I know I'm bringing this back up from the grave, but I'm still gathering parts for the project and I wanted to say that I really appreciate you guy's insight on this subject, no better place to go for a custom turbo setup then these boards right here
<b>If ANYONE knows anything or has a link to a write about the wastegate rod actuator !mod that allows you to run lower then a factory boost setting with expensive aftermarket wastegates (which REALLY are not necissary for what I'm trying to run), please post information and let me know as that's one of the big issues that setting me back.</b>
As for the comment about needing custom manifolds, I won't be needing that. The turbos will be mounted on each side of the oil pan, after the exhaust manifolds sans the Y pipe. The LS1 Incon TT kit runs it this way, only drawback is there is no gravity drain for the turbos and you have to run a pricey oil scavenge pump to keep the turbos from getting too much oil and no where to drain it.
Let me attach some pictures so you a better idea, this setup definately makes for a sleeper!
