Default Psychotic STI

Check this out, STI with 2 turbos so big that it needs SC to spool them up. Runs something in the order of 25psi!

There would be HEAPS left in it. You don't need 2 turbos and a supercharger
to make 25psi, my Gemini was making 22psi by 3500rpm with one small turbo.

Hes running TWO GT30s on a 2.0 litre, thats two fairly big turbos even one gives a pretty high boost threshold.

He even said he'd exspect to be making boost by 7000rpm which i would believe. I guess a blower would give that extra exhaust flow down low to spool the suckers up real really.

Crazy job, i love it.

That is phenomenal! 25psi with stock internals - those japs sure know how to build engines.
