From what little I know, the dual intakes on the HR lends itself nicely to twins. It is actually more difficult to go with a single and spliting up the flow to both throttle bodies equally.

Congrats Terry, would love to see/feel, but im in JERSEY. Going to Vegas in 3 weeks, then I'll be much closer.


Thanks for taking the plunge Terry, and showing all of us what we would do if we had the $$$$$$$$$$. I know if i happened to get a 15 K bonus randomly, my car would be on its way to GTM as we speak. unfortunately, I didnt get said bonus, therefore I am still N/A. Wondering what the $$$, #'s on a single turbo would be, as well as what the negatives of a SC would be.

Anyone care to comment on any of those thoughts?

In closing-----I'M FUC#!NG JEALOUS.

Congrats Terry. Your description of how your car feels makes me miss my old 300ZXTT. Hmmnnn.... I think my next car may be a 335i or 535i.

Hey Terry...CONGRATS!!!Are you planning on going to any meets soon? I would love to check out your car!
Also...a newb (and didn't read up on the set-up) question...but are the two turbos sequential or do they both boost at the same time? Other thing...is at what psi are you boosting at. Any answers would be great.

Thanks in advance!!!

it is a bi-turbo setup; they spool at the same time.

I believe Terry is boosting about 9psi. As stated earlier, PSI is not a good indicator of performance increase.
