Yeah its a lot of work for that. With all the fab work you've put into the setup I believe a true T4 housing would have netted better results and not have to use 4 waste gates. I'm sure it will work as I have a friend that does something similar on his truck to try and bleed off excessive back pressure.

Turbos are now horizontally in car compared how they are in DKT kit and about 1-1.5" above than DKT located them. Had to make frame mods get some clearance for turbine housings.

Tuomas, what's the need for the added gates? Is it simply to give you better (low boost) control?
Also have you seen how the Subaru WRC cars used to mount their turbos? They were almost vertical! lol

I don't see the purpose of that unless you are having boost control issues. Are you not able to run low enough boost? If you are having back pressure issues, you need a larger turbine and housing, not more wastegate.

Yea, more gate will equal less boost as you can't just reduce backpressure and keep boost pressure the same. I suppose you will be able to run a wider range of pressure with more gate surface area.

Yep, low boost issue, want about 700 hp setup to motec potentiometer, 2x46mm pte's are not enough keep boost under 10psi.

Tuomas, fwiw there is definitely room for T4 housings in there. I've mounted 4 sets (including that Blownblue guys ) inside a C5 framework that's tighter. Still high enough for gravity drain and not hitting starter or frame. As Jeff said, it does require a bit of tilt and finesse.
Great work on the overall build. A lot of your work is pretty inspiring

Made sure we have a straight shot into each plug hole. Will be able to get a 4" pipe on both sides. Test fitment has already been done.
These are the Precision 6870s with the S cover and T4 housings.
