Ive taken 1g turbos complety apart from the manifolds and the dumps, and let me say looking at the stock dump indian is 100% correct, there is no where near enough room there to split the dumps for the twins. If you wanted to do this it isnt imposible, you would have to fabricate a new turbo manifold which would pull the turbos away from one another so you could make room to put a split dump pipe setup.

yeah mate thats what ive been told before , no way we gonna fit twin dump in there unless it was like 1 inch each lollllllll
the only way is to run like two dumps joining one exactly like the stock one but a bit biger then have it join into a 3 inch pipe to continue down to the whole exhaust , its a pain though and not really worth it , but if some one came up with some easy way then it will be good
cheers

Yeah thanks guys, i was wondering about space between the turbos, but i saw a picture of ct12a's with dumps and got excited. I may be able to make somethin up, but as u said it might not be worth the effort!
What about ct12a's on the 1g.... Seeing as they are a bit larger and further apart, is it possible at all to fit them in the space on a 1g?? I'd have no worries fabricating some new flannges and stuff, but would they actually fit??

ct12a is from the next generation soarer , flange pattern is different , and they have ceramic wheels which are prone to shattering on high boost
therea section in the article area on the difference b/ween ct12 and ct12a have a read of it
and if u think u can do something about the ct12dump pipes keep us iformed plenty people looing to do it
cheers

If you wanted to get more performance out of the twin turbos from a 1g, no point going to ct12a's as indian said they have ceramic wheels, this would require a change if you wanted them to perform. You would be better of spending the money on highflowing the standard 1g turbos, by the addition of t28 front wheels and cut back rear wheel. Or you could do what i have done, just put a single on it.

twin dump pipes can be done, i got my exhaust shop to fit them. they are in a ra65, the front turbo facing back curves in to the head and the back turbo curves out then down around the steering rod non p/s, join into one 3" system and out the back. looks neet and is a lot better than stock.

it was a full hks kit attached to a halfcut, the problem was it places the rear turbo(hks turbo) further back than the standard one giving you more room between the two turbos but all would give people who were fitting it to a non standard car clearance troubles as all the conversions I have seen you start getting close to clutch m/s and firewall back there.
