    I have a the bae turbo and twin island turbo. Both are quite a bit faster then my stock deloreans. Both can be a bolt on kit but if you want to run more then 5-6 lbs you should have the motor built to handle the boost. Both mine were done buy the previous owners. So as price I can not tell you but well worth doing. The twin turbo is two small turbos with little lag. The bae is one turbo with some lag time. There is not a huge difference between the two.

    Josh, what about the bhp for the spec 1 with the cat delete pipe? That's the setup I've got my eyes on for when I'm done redoing my a/c.

    I will have accurate numbers shortly. Currently everything is calculated from rwhp. As I just invested in an engine dyno for test firing and certifying each build we send out the door.

    So I sit here corrected. I did not know of anyone (until now) in the PNDC who owns a twin turbo D. I’ve never met him so I hope one day he will bring them out to a club function. And, on top of that I had no idea anyone owns more than two DeLoreans at the same time.

    Josh's 3.0 build will be the last "one off" system we produce. Mainly because everyone that sees it wants one too. This is fine but it is extremely time consuming to do it right. Being a perfectionist makes it even worse. After this everything for owners will be manufactured in quantity by SW. Aka our twin turbo system a few of you have had a chance to enjoy so far. For warranty reasons module replaceable components is important. As much as I like spending weeks building custom kits, it just doesn't make sense from a business standpoint. I learned early on these were very demanding to produce and have always kept quite only elaborating when asked.



    I had already sworn off these custom builds when Josh contacted me last year. He was dealing with the common issue of a rotting cooling system on his 3.0 crate motor swap. I was set back by everything he had figured out for himself on the install, EFI etc and decided this would be a great last one off project to take the rest of the way.

    Here is a picture from a while back. Everything is out at Jet Hot right now being coated. (IE turbine housing, all exhaust components etc.) Don't mind the ugly AC compressor. There for mock up use only.
    Planning on having this one up and running at the start of June.

    I will really struggle tuning this thing in under 300bhp. PRV's love boost but this must be a reliable daily driver in Az with high ambient temperatures to begin with. Also switched to EDIS and Josh installed meth injection prior to dropping it off.

    Very nice build! The Eagle Premier engine seems to be very popular in the last few years.
