Well, like i said, I can't go ass to mouth exactly, but the way this is set up, the turbos are very close together. This past weekend, with the help of three friends of mine, we turned my driveway into a fab shop and got all the up-pipes, mid pipe, down pipe and CAC tubing cut and tacked to be TIG welded this week. It is nice to have friends who are welders. I owe those guys more than a few beers. After the first hood-slam test, we had a small dent in the cold side CAC tube, so some adjustments were made, so everything fits under the hood... so far. Here is an under hood picture with the turbos and CAC tubes test fitted. I may post some pics of the exhaust side after we have a chance to put some weld on them and get them cleaned up some.

Question for those of you running compounds with a gate, what are you using for a boost regulator on the boost tube to the top port? Just looking for some ideas of what has worked and what hasn't.

Here is the new FICM harness, needed to relocate my FICm to the driver's side fender.

Tonight, I will finish up the fuel lines for the relocated regulated return, then start installing stuff on the truck. I will have a big hammer ready in case Ford didn't put the firewall in exactly the right spot.

Since I haven't updated this in a little while. Here is the latest. The plumbing is finished up, the wastegate was a pain to get installed, combination of no room and not putting a flex pipe in the wastegate leg. Oh well, live and learn. just ahve to finish up the hpop system and will be attempting to start it this week, hopefully Wednesday.

Some pics of the pipes. I plan to have them powder coated and polish the compressor housings.

The degas bottle will mount next to the low pressure, behind the alternator, eventually will be an aluminum one for an 05-07 mustang. The dual hpop will be using Jesse's bracket next to the alternator.

Awesome. I will have to get a couple pics tomorrow maybe. Working nights for the rest of the week. Did you have anything special done with your tuning for the extra oil?

Not sure what the volume capability is of the pump you are using, but mine had to have IPR DC pulled back. Make sure you have the 'revised' shaft seals and bearings in your pump, because if you don't for your application, you'll blow the bearings out with that kind of side load
