not worth it to tt a 1.8 and it is possible to tt a 2.8 but for the money your going to spend get an S4 that already has a 2.7tt

You'd be better off goin with one big a$$ turbo on a built 1.8/2.0


or maybe a VR6T


or just do it the cheap and easy was and pick up a B5S4

GL!

Screw your twin turbo idea, how about quad turbo, 1 per cylinder.

2 pulses dont make for very good spool. Dont know why people still think this way. A gt turbo can spool up so fast, it has eliminated the need for a twin or sequential setup.
