I have a S400 on the bottom and like it alot. With a 35/40 on top you would have a very nice set of towing twins.

city diesel sells s400 for 650. I've got a buddy that sell them for 600. With a 35/40 hybrid on the top it will spool better than stock. When I had a 35/14wg on top of the 3b I had boost at 1200RPM. It should spool pretty quick. The bottom turbo actually give the top turbo a little back pressure to help with spool up.

there aren't realy any blue prints. It's a cut and piece together, doesn't fit, cut some more, grind this, hammer on that deal. That is unless you buy a kit like RIPs and then its pretty much put it together and weld.

I would strongly suggest an adjustable wastegate on the primary (bottom) turbo, so you can balance it with top turbo after it's installed.

Assume you already have a WG on your 35/40 turbo?
