    nice but i understand wanting to be different but u would get more power from a big single turbo

    yes, i probably would, but you nailed it in one.. I wanted to be different smile.gif
    That why I went straight LPG too...

    It was my first go at turbo'ing a car so I jumped in at the deep end so to speak.. the extra work of 2 turbos isnt that much of an issue because I did most of the fab myself

    I should add its not fininshed yet, obviously... and it s an EX-Taxi with a barely run in 675000 kays on the odometer...

    Its a sort of DIY project, when its all fininshed off and tuned by a pro I hope its been worth my time ohmy.gif

    As I said its my first time playing with Turbos and I don't realy have any idea of what Ag-pipe is? I'm guessing you mean agricultural pipe from the turbos to the airfilters? If thats what you are talking about, Its the fire resistant piping that usually goes from the filler to the tank on an LPG conversion..

    Sorry that I don't get it..

    Haha yeh I meant the agricultural pipe smile.gif good to hear its not... only thing that would concerne me, is the internal pattern of the piping ribbed ? or is it a smooth surface...

    Coz if it follows the contour of the outside pattern (ribbed) its not gonna be too crash hot and you should look at getting something thats gonna flow better fabricated smile.gif

    Looks like a nice conversion though, very well done thumbsup.gif

    PS:
    Looks like there is a kink in the rear turbo's pipe right up front near the filter... and i just discovered I really like saying the word ribbed biggrin.gif

    hahaha no is all good mate, the piping is smooth on the inside..

    THe gray pipe is slightly smaller diameter, hence why it kinked and was just a general pain in the arse.. I has another section of the black stuf to fix it up though

    THanks for the kind words
