XYZ Donating Members 1,171 Member For: 15y 3m 20d Posted 23/04/12 12:38 AM Share Posted 23/04/12 12:38 AM (edited) Get Spiro to look for a similar Turbo set up as mine with a twin gate manifold.. Comes on boost quicker than my old GCG highflow set up.. Edited 23/04/12 12:39 AM by XYZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been running with the combo for a year now and couldn't be happier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
