I have a 66/74/14 single right now and want to add another turbo. I have an aurora 5000 sitting around would that be a good one to put on?? If not ill get a s480. Any input is great thanks

If I remember correctly, a A5000 is a 71mm. Should do just fine with your set up.

I think that's what I'll try. I was just wondering if they were to close in size? What mm is a 480 do you know?

80mm. The 4 in the 480 is the frame/body size, and the 80 is mm size of compressor inlet.

that is going to be one smokey and laggy setup...

might want a shot of N20 just to get it going and hopefully stay on top of the boost once you do get them lit because if you fall below that it'll fall on its face and just pump soot with no power.


adding a second turbo to your current one is going to INCREASE the lag of your current turbo because it now has to spool a second larger turbo with it.
