Default any more turbo guys here?

has anyone here came up with some sort of custom turbo project? or did all the turbo guys just jump on the powerhouse band wagon? i still have the half of a kit i started building and started to neglect. (two TD04 turbos) on manifolds, the only thing im missing to comeplete the kit other than putting it on, is that i need a sct tuner and exhaust work done, BOVand also injectors and a new intercooler, the one i already got is not going to work. but i just learned that my TD04's are not going to give me a good power output. as to my compressor side of the turbo is too small. the turbine is relative to a T25. but i need to hybrid my turbo with a super 20g compressor wheel and housing, if i want to make any good power off 8psi. so now im discouraged, and thinking about dumping the twins for an easier single set up..

i havent been on the forums in a long while and was wondering what everyone has been doing lately

I have the forced4 turbo and I love it. got some kinks to work out but thats it... As for other people, I only know of 1 other custom turbo project and its a TT, besides MSP well...I won't even go their. Most everybody is going Powerhouse as that is the only one on the market right now(I got the last Forced4 kit).

Did I miss something? Is Jenna no longer producing these?

She decided to do revisions to the design because of my experience. Jenna's fabricator WAS a piece of ****(another long story) and the shop that installed my kit got the angles wrong when they had to weld the flange into place that connects hot side piping. Before she puts her kit up for sale again, she wants to make it dummy proof and wants to find another fabricator. This has been the worst experience with a shop that I have ever had.
