Has anyone used the Hydra on a LGT? I had this crazy idea about a twin turbo setup using twin MAFs on a custom intake manifold.

Where would you mount the turbos, foglight locations? It's really difficult to route the plumbing if you go with the "stock" locations.

I wouldn't bother with the added cost of twin turbo. There is plenty of STi's running very well with minimal lag on one big turbo. Spend the extra $$ on a built engine like Cobbs 2.65ltr.

edit: Forgot...

Hydra is the bomb! Everytime I hear Phil speak about more features of it, it keeps amazing me!

If you are going to spend money then you may as well do a full swap. BTW have you thought of going with a twinscroll turbo?

In looking at the engine compartment, mounting space/location would be a major issue. More displacement and a bigger single turbo seems like the sensible choice here. Too bad Crawford dropped the ball, I really wanted an R4 block, but not badly enough to risk it after Bruce's experience with his STI.

Bruces car will be back on the road soon with a Cobb built engine. After Bruces car is done, throwing down some big #'s and seriously quick times I think alot of the people waiting to see what happens will be cobb engine customers :tup:
