Cheston,
How was the underhood temp during the turbo running? I'm curious on the amount of variance there is with the turbo's. The twin turbos remind me of heatsinks and was wondering on the effect it had for hood temps.
Thanks in advance.

Heat now has become one of the main concerns.
intake temp hasn't been so much the problem while driving even on a moderately hot day, but since the VQ has already been running warm to begin with, the TT isnt helping much..
we ran some oil and water temp gauges to double check to see if they are 'acceptable' and further testing need to be completed first.. i'm not worried...
i might suggest running an oil cooler (as with all forced induction systems... but with a turbo specifically..).. the oil temps we are getting are still within spec.. water is fine too. but it can always be lower...

The prototpye PE turbo is coming off my car and going into production.... look forward to a mid-late Sept Delivery for the initial sets... a SEMA show appearance in November, and a few other rabbit-out-of-the-hat tricks.
yay.
yay.

awesome. how about also adding a higher capacity oil pan along with the cooler?
after listening to those prochargers videos..I definately want to go with a turbo.
will there be a 'qualified and recommended' installer in California?
anybody have work done at Signal ?
who will be selling this kit?
will it be availablle with all the necessary additions ? as a true kit?
would better pistons be recommended?
