  1. Compound turbo, thoughts?

    Yes, I wasn't planning on spinning the engine past 7k, maybe 7500. If I built it then maybe 8k but if I spinning that fast it starts to make the use of the small stock turbo a waste and might as well just throw a big stall in there and a large single. For now the plan is to stay with the stock...
  2. Compound turbo, thoughts?

    For daily driving the second turbo wouldn't really do much, if anything unless getting onto the highway quickly. For the 1/4, I was thinking that the stock turbo would be used to 60' and have the torque of the second turbo come on somewhere around 4500-5k rpm. I'm not expecting full spool out of...
  3. Compound turbo, thoughts?

    I really don't want a high stall converter. I want a be able to drive it anywhere, I don't like how high stall converters feel for DD. That's thinking outside the box lol. I thought about adding a turbo to my truck to push it to 1k hp but the costs to get everything else up to snuff will far...

    A. I'm in the Valley, 90 miles north of Sac B. The dyno graphs I've seen of the larger turbos to get to the power range I want to be look like they leave too much to be desired below 4k rpm. While I definitely will be drag racing this car, it must be very derivable, I want to be able to drive...
  6. Compound turbo, thoughts?

    Ok, Introduction first. I have a complete 2016 2.3 ecoboost/auto combo pulled to transplant into my 1972 Mercury Comet. It was too good of a deal to pass up. I was originally going to convert to a mustang II front suspension and Coyote but this will save me about $5k and save a bunch of time...
