I really want the AGP twins but I’m on the fence !!

Honestly the only reason I went KB was for smog reasons. CA sucks!
I loved the turbos. I had to buy the SLP hood insert, looks and fits great.

That may make the car more fun on the low end....but walking away on the top end from a PD car with my TTs will be WAY MORE FUN!!!!

I agree, but on the street most the time its light to light or something short. Unless you have an area to stretch it out the PD blower is great.

Very cool to see the different data but imo the turbo Dyno sheet is pretty misleading. The load (and boost curve) will be way different on the street. An agp tt car on the base turbos is super responsive it was instant boost 3k rpm and above

This was not ment to show one was better than the other. More so to show how much more power a good turbo system can make over a blower at the same boost.

Yeah I get that part but it looks like the turbos are all top end when in reality the tt cars ive driven have a solid mid range with a ton of useable torque

That could be because the turbos I was running where a bit over sized for the current engine combo?

You needed a camshaft speced for those turbos , a little overlap does wonders for response and spool. My friend had the base turbos with a big btr stage 4 n/a cam and we were shocked how fast that car got in boost. It would easily build boost down low even at part throttle barely getting on it we were really surprised

I just recently went from a Maggie making 750 @14lbs to twins at 7ish lbs made 757. And there both really fun set ups. But where the blower runs out the twins put it down where you can use it. My wife likes the turbos cause it doesn't slam her head with the head rest. Lol I do miss that about the blower. Damn thing hit like a freight train!

Then, there's this thing call an anti-lag setup for a turbo. I'm going to be working on one soon, and hear it's all the rave with turbos!

Was that on a SBE 376????

Building a 427 LSX and trying to make a wise cam choice BUT way to many opinions from ALL the cam mfgs.
