Gives you even more respect for J&R.
I greatly prefer a large single over twins but I was kind of hoping to see a twin turbo setup just because the head port configuration lends itself so well to a twin setup. Plus they tend to be a little more linear vs on or off so it would be a neat setup for the guys that track their cars.

D-Rob is a huge tuner for the K series. I'm sure he is extremely busy with his shop. I have no doubt that this job will get finished. Hopefully sooner rather than later! Good luck with the build man.

Well, its been a very LONG while since I have logged in here.
Shortly after I began collecting parts for this project, I ended up deciding that I wanted to buy a house and marry my girlfriend of 8 years.
That being said, the TT-TL project came to a screeching halt.
Now that I'm settled in my new house, and the wedding will be done and out of the way in July, I'm going to pick back up on this project. I still have the GT28's (actually, they're taking up space on my showroom at the moment), and I have already designed the charge piping/intercooler piping route.
I suppose life got in the way of making this project go full steam ahead!
Oh, and I have also been very busy putting any "extra" cash I have in the meanwhile into my other project, the turbo K-Series Civic coupe, which required some very expensive 2,000cc injectors to go on to make 614whp//430wtq on the stock engine on ethanol.
I apologize for getting certain hopes up, but it appears this project is paused.
The thread can be closed, if moderation sees it fit.

That's a large injector.... Add a few cylinders and the cost will go down lol. But out of curiosity, how much did they cost? We're running (6) 180lb injectors which I think is just under 2,000cc and they were around $600, not too bad.
Anyway, good luck with it, hopefully we'll see some updates soon.
Edit: Nevermind, just saw you're running ethanol. The flow rate makes a lot more sense now as well.

That's not the way it works. One or two makes no difference in BOV operation. If you don't want the BOV noise, don't vent it to atmosphere. If you don' tlike the turbo sound, put a stock-like airbox on it. Number of turbos makes no difference.
