Thanks tho

EDIT

can the s400 from the stocker twins set-up be upgraded to a s480 later???
I assume it can but thought I would ask..

I dont know if the 400 is upgradeable to the 480 but I know the 480 is quite a bit more expensive than the 74mm 400. Or at least that is what I was told.

yeah I would not run the S480 with a stock turbo...I meant later, as in when I upgraded from the stock turbo

does anybody know FORSURE if the S400 can be upgraded to S480

...but we all know the "I upgraded my MPT twins!" post is probably only about a week or so away.

Nice setup, Rye!

I think I can make it....

Let me know how your first oil change goes. On mine, the drain from the primary charger is very tight to remove from the block. Since its an aeroquip fitting, I can't be too aggressive with it. So, I had to snake the filter through the cold pipes.

Just something to consider in the future.
