I used one of those for a while.
It's just as easy to cut the ******* out, give the colon a tug, and tie it in a knot.
There's a second gen now with a depth stop.

They actually work surprisingly well on whitetail, but definitely aren't needed.

Guys, I will need help.
**** got real.

I was invited to meet one of the largest turbo importers/distributors/parts and service providers in the country today.
We talked about my car over tea, and the owner asked me specific questions.
I told him I have the GT2560R in mind. He said I am used to a supercharger and would like the low end response.
After another round of tea, he walked over to a glass display cabinet and pulled this out.



It's a twin turbo setup by Mercedes. Has 2 turbos on it. I counted a small one and a bigger one. 2.
He verified that number.

I politely told him I have a budget and it would still go way over if he chopped this thing in half.
He then proceeded to tell me he has been following the stuff I do, the TV show, and that he appreciates the fact that I help people in car matters.
The next few words were not very clear, so I asked him to repeat.
To paraphrase, he basically said he would be honored if I accepted this setup as a gift.
A gift.

Long story short, I did accept the gracious gift.

So...

Has anyone tried this sorta thing before?

I mean, I do not know much about turbos. YET. I am learning.
Shall I go head first into this thing?

Manifold and DP will NOT be a problem. I have ample room in the engine bay, even the PS pump is gone. (Electric conversion, remember?)

Should I be happy, or scared, what?
