turbocharging a 3.8 v6
i bought 2 t3/t4 turbochargers and an intercooler from my friend pretty cheap. i have a 1995 3.8 v6. i was wondering what is the best way to set up the turbos whether i should put one on each each side of the motor, or trade one of them for a smaller turbo to run the bigger turbo or what i should do.

Curious on this post also, Who in mind does everyone agree on for making Custom Manifolds?
I have been looking into Tma's website and I haven't had a reply from them yet. Anyone else have someone they know and worked with before? |

First off welcome to MM! My goal is to have a '95 V6 TT. Chris is right about that list. Plus what other mods do you already have? If you are going with that kind of boost you might really want to consider forged internals. Plus, you need to look at upgrading to an 8.8 rear end. Although all of this can seem a bit daunting, stick with it. You already have the turbos and intercooler, that is a big part of the expense. Keep us up to date on your progress.

next, you have two options when it comes to manifolds, you can turn your stockers around OR you can make your own... if your really interested i have an old pair siting around for my 97 that you can buy off me... no guarantee if they will fit though

With hope he may respond, If not I will be interested in your manifolds after I can verify they will fit. If all fails I was looking into a centrifugal supercharger from procharger. Not really aiming that direction unless no other option. Id like to be able to adjust and modify my settings if I do anymore upgrades internally |
