  Hello Alec,

  Out US engines are 9-1, thus no need to drop compression.  Yes, I will run an intercooler, both physical and chemical. Too not do so makes no sense.

  My manifolds for the TT project are cast...the other headers are for naturally aspired cars, ideally to be run w/ the cams I'm offering.

    Jonathan,
    If you go twin turbo, are you going to lower compression?
    Are you going to inter-cool?
    Is this what you made the special headers for?

      I'm still working @ finding the time to get my twin turbo kit installed.... There is no good reason why these cars can't live long and fruitfal lives whist running forced induction.  My first step will be to get everything bolts on for some base number then I plan on making the switch to stand along EFI/Spark etc..

              Has anyone had either success - or for that matter, failure with fitting either turbo's or supercharger to an SEC motor.

              The archives are full of posts dreaming about it but has it ever been done?
