Jerry gave the hint that one car would be twincharged and the other TT... my guess is twin gt28s blowing through a gutted S/C for one car, and keeping the S/C and adding a gt35 for the other car (T takes over for S/C at high rpm)

Right or wrong, can't wait to see what you guys're building... keep the info comin'!

OK, i will post up some pics shortly, but we have come up with a great little combo for running the TT setup...it is by no means done, but phase one is almost complete...

msheredy was the closest guess, we are switching over to the NA 320 manifold and then running twin Big 16G turbos...they will spool fast and provide great power on our car!

things have taken longer than anticipated already because of all of the things that have to be addressed inorder for the car to run properly just without the supercharger, not to mention all of the fabrication that is taking place...i am having some custom parts machined inorder for everything to work...

stay tuned, we should have some new progress each day until the project is complete...we are shooting to go the track next friday if everything works out!

"Bolt-up" certainly, but it would need to be tuned completely differently, wouldn't it?

I would assume that stock C320 internals aren't quite as robust as C32 internals, and that the C320 is running a significantly higher compression - so without major internal engine mods, wouldn't the C320 have to run this setup with significantly less boost than what you're planning for the C32?

Correct! that is exactly what we are planning to do...a nicely tuned low-boost setup for the 320 guys...

SRT 6
Erick,

How is the project coming???? I have been drooling at the thought of "twins"!
Now you throw the pulley special in the mix and make for a tougher decision.
...wait for the turbo project to be complete and shoot for 500HP crank or do the 185mm pulley now....I love choices like this.

Keep us posted, we are all watching!


I guess it was rude of me...I just realized I have not posted on MBWorld before and have not introduced myself.

Hello to all...My name is Patrick. I am from Currituck, NC and own a 2005 Crossfire SRT6. I have been lurking on this site since I bought the SRT6 (Nov 2007) trying to learn as much as possible about the car. You all seem to be a nice and knowledgeable bunch of guys and gals over here. I hope you all don't mind me joining in with my Chrysler.
Anything that I learn about the car i will certainly share, if applicable, here and at www.crossfireforums.org where I am also a member.

Cheers,
KrzyFast

You want to buy them for me?

J/K - the turbos we picked are perfect for what we are trying to do. They will also fit in tight places.

Here are some pics...I have been making good progress this week, just waiting on some final parts to come-in (intercoolers, piping, etc) and waiting on a few parts to be done at the machine shop...

also, something that you C32 guys will find interesting...i have lost at least 100 pounds off the front end, i will weigh all of the parts that i pulled off the car tomorrow to give you guys an idea...
















Phase 1 will be done in a couple of days, then we just have to fit the turbos on the car...
