Hi, looong time since i've posted on this forum.

Just wondering how you were going with the twincharge? I did my 2nd aw11 twincharger a few months back (1st one was back in '07), been having fun running 25psi max, but need to get it to the city (720k's from me) and get tuned properly on the dyno.
this one i am running a stock sc12 with a gt2871r turbo. have moved the TB on top of the gze inlet manifold and using a external wastegate as a bypass for idle and throttle closed. using a ems 4424 v4 for engine managment and running true compound with out switching off or bypassing the supercharger. i've twin intercooled with this setup as well.
would love to buy a eaton m62 blower one day if i can afford it.

look forward to seeing yours running. :)

AWesome. Another "closed" Facebook group where you can't see anything unless you first join the group. :roll:

And John a link to any online info about your Aussie twin charger would be really cool too mate...

The mockup and progress on plumbing as it stands at the moment. As it sits the setup is Intake to IC into SC out to WTA to Plenum, Quads then engine. This might change back yet but at the moment this is the setup. The wheel in the background is one of the ones going on the car once they are cleaned up 17x7 +20 in the rear and +43 front so they sit perfect in the guards so they were a good score. I also have some 15's that I will probably put semi slicks on.

Genuine HKS headers and turbo from the HKS twincharge kit that they made.

Bottom of the photo you can see the IC pipe coming though the firewall and the primer coated hole is where the WTA outlet comes out to go into the plenum.

WTA will be mounted here when done and as you can see the inlet is running along the back of the fire wall and through the hole on the RH side that the loom would have used.The Red canister will be the overflow bottle for the WTA.
