    ok.. so i did not do the paint... but that is all... had to have that done cause i don't have a paint booth... so why you got to hate... we are all here for the love of the cars and the origonality of everyones designes...
    not hating,(well a little, but thats cause you wont post pics, and because i have a del sol, and hate seeing them like this) calling you out on bs.

    t3's or t4's?

    since im pretty sure your not using a v6 motor, or doing crazy fabrication work, they have to be "one-after-the-other" where one turbo pushes into another.(since you have to have 2 turbos for some reason)

    and since you know alot, you would know that you should probably use a smaller turbo to push into a bigger one (to help with spool) kinda like a toyota supra (stock one)

    but you knew that.

    only problem it may create, is how much psi you will be able to get out of 2nd larger turbo, to not overspool the first smaller one. but if you are using a t3 and a t4, on the motor you will be using them on, you wont be able to use the t4 to its potential.

    two t3's? why? when one is enough, all you will do is make more power (that you dont need, cant control,cant get traction, and have to have complete faith inthe builder of your motor)
    even then, you wont hit full spool (unless its like 5 psi, then it goes back to how stupid haveing two turbos is for 5 psi) til very close to max rpm, then it will break the tires loose, redline, and you will have to shift, and you will have gotten 5 feet.
    i think you jsut want what sounds cool, not what works.
