Rip is carrying all kinds of stuff for DIY twins. www.sourceautomotive.biz Beyond that, it seems that a hybrid secondary (35/40 etc) and either a BHT3B or S400 derivative are very popular, and cheap. Lots of planning and fab time is involved, but I hear it's worth it. Good luck!

I already had a 35/40 hybrid with a 16 non wastegated exhaust housing , So I used that for the top turbo then I bought a HT3B/26 that needed rebuilt. I got it for 250 including the rebuild kit. I think I have roughly 650-700 bucks into it. So you tell me if I saved any cash.. If I had to do it all over I would have used a 14 wastegated housing for the top turbo and lose the external gate. I also would like to have put another external gate in the hot pipe between the two turbos. Something around 50 mm. To better control boost.. Still may????????
