sorry no updates for a while. Got a little demotivated there for a bit. Winter is here and i didnt want to deal with the car for a min. With that said things that changed.
Sold the 15s, staying with the 18s heard on the street it was only a slight improvement.
Back to eboost 2 with boost by gear.
was running out of fuel so doing a Radium dual walbro 400 fuel surge tank setup and holley rails. Replacing the upp fuel kit i had prior.
Also running meth again with a failsafe built in. Devels own dual nozzle kit.
Time to max out this turbo when we hit the dyno.

Same surgetank setup I have my eyes on if I ever max out my current system. Are you going to switch to a boost referenced FPR now that you are putting in a surge tank?
Also I definitely think you made the right choice ditching the 15's. My car hooked all 700/700 in first gear on the street with the skinnier 17's so from the higher rolls/gears, I'm sure it will be able to hook anything I can throw it.

Was about 1000 for the surge tank with pumps and wire kits for them. Need new feed line might be able to use the current feed as my new return line and got the holley rails for 180. So ballpark idk 1500 for parts. Maybe a little more. Maybe able to sell my 255 and 044 recoupe a little bit.

i dont think surge tanks are really budget minded. I do see cheap ones on ebay. But these are setup ready to go. Wire it and fuel lines and its good to go.

My comment was a little vague i was referring to your build, wondering how much it would cost me to build something like that but less power(for now).

if you do it yourself or a buddy does it and you use more budget minded routs and parts. you can get it done for Base blower kit prices. To duplicate mine it cost more.

There is nothing budget about Glass' setup. Unless you can weld on your own or have a buddy that can weld/engineer a set-up for beer, it's significantly more expensive than your average bolt-on blower/TT kit.
It works extremely well though.
