A pair of cross drilled brake lines will be a fine addition

Yup, I'm still putting mine together. Its acutally a 76mm not a 72 like I thought. 76mm compressor wheel, 68mm turbine wheel) , dual ceramic ball bearings, t3-twin scroll, .84ar's, 4in inlet and outlet. Had 2 dyno pulls on it the guys Honda couldn't spool it until 6k. Going to swap the exhaust housing for a standard t4. I didn't like the no name turbo that came with the sts kit

Same thing? Are you running a rear mount too? I couldn't pass this one up so low.miles and its was almost half price. You really think your going to need the spool valve

not really from my understanding. twin scroll has two paths to the turbine wheel for the exhaust gas to flow one for low velocity one for high. divided flange is just a flange with a bar in the middle to smooth turbulent air (exhaust pulses). right now i build boost between 2500 and 3000 and 14lbs at about 3800. i'd like to see what it'll do to how fast i can build boost
