New Twins
Went out to J.R. Adkins home last weekend to have a new set of twins installed. The top turbo is an HX-40 with a 14cm housing and the bottom turbo is a "Big Air" HT4B. The turbos have been completely modded in the inside. They spoolup as fast as my HX-35 and HT3B. The big charger did not hurt the spoolup. I had time today to do some testing on this set-up. For fuel I'm running J.R.'s stage 5 injectors and a comp box, the box was set at level 2x5 for the test. The first test was to check the between stages pressure or to see what the big charger was doing. At 60psi the big turbo was making 30psi and at 70psi it was making 40psi. Next I set the gauge up to read drive pressure. At 65psi I had 54 pounds of back pressure, not to bad for running the small housing on the HX-40. I'm very happy with my new set-up. I would recommend J.R. to anyone interested in looking for turbos, injectors or twin turbo set-ups. He is definitely a first rate guy to deal with. Thanks again to J.R. and Ryan for the install.

Question for yall since I see the pic...Where do you put the 2nd batt. since the intake tubes and air filter takes up that space?
