Default Twin Turbo update

Hey there to all interested,
Thanks for all your advice and comments concerning my upgrade.
Well after all is said and done i have decided to go with the Twins from HP... And yes i know i'll have to be patient and wait for them to get their A$$ in to gear and send me my stuff, but i figured the Twins were the way to go and i just haven't found anyone else that will do it. or at least i have but they had worse reps than HP. Gonna place the order mid next month and hopefully we'll have it installed by spring. Still waiting to hear back from Quik though about a good place to have them installed near Pit pa.
Reasons for the twins... well they spool quicker and run cooler... (engine life is a concern).
Other than that we'll just have to wait and see how this all turns out... will definitely post some pics when i'm done.

Theres no real good tuning places in pittsburgh for mustangs. Laural mountain mustangs, but they dont have a dyno. All other shops are pretty much rice dedicated, i wouldnt trust them tuning my car.

Kauffman motorsports is great but its a 3 hours drive. Mid-eastern PA.

That would be way to much anticipation for me, no way I could wait that long. Congrats on deciding though, keep up updated.

Ha ha ha... thats what i'm afraid of... speed addiction... but i think i will be able to keep my foot out of it, given the amount of money going into it. It's a dam long wait though.
