[QUOTE="White_monster, post: 174144, member: 594"] Well as most of you know I have a set of max powers to go with my build. Also most ppl that read my thread before I removed it figured out that I try to be through. So I'm asking how I can control back pressure with big nozzles. Reason I ask is I've asked around and the few ppl with experience with similar setups can't keep from over speeding the big turbo, even with Elites dual gate setup. I've spoke with Tadd and he's confident it can be done but if it can be done why are there so many issues? I'd mention names but that's not important. I'll enclose some pics of my setup during fabrication at Elite. My question is should I put a 3rd gate from between the 2 turbos to the down pipe to keep the big turbo from over speeding? I'm open to suggestions on this. Right after I do my turbos a good buddy has the same set of turbos and he's concerned with this as well. Also maybe someone from Elite can get Precision Turbo to disclose a compressor map for the PT8285 turbo. Thanks heres some pics. I'd like to put the gate from the s bend pipe to the down pipe, space is tight and might require some hammering on the firewall. Anyways here's some pics of what has been tried on different trucks, results have varied. Thanks to Boostfed for the pics of the race truck and of how the upper gate plumbs in from elite. Thanks to Jd from Elite for the pics of my parts. [ATTACH=full]73319[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73320[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73321[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73322[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
