64 inch should move some air but the lag might make driving in traffic challanging

Cant decide to try a 42r as a single or use it as the low pressure turbo...

I think you could make a single 42 run well in every aspect. If your goin low pressure, dont be scurred, throw a 45 at it :

well i would by my buddy has a wastegated 42 off a detroit, going to take a look at both of his turbos today, i gotta do something!!!

With a complete elite built motor you will hit 700+ on just fuel.

i dont have the 8k that it costs...

I think you should set up a single, that would be rather sweet. And I figured a complete Elite motor would be more than 8k.

Im torn right now, it would be nice to know that its going to spool good and tow well, but no one has ran a single at this point and i would like to try it as well, and i have some serious altitude to deal with, so spool up would be a good test up here. Im going back and forth right now, set up a single, if i hate it, do a 64mm something as the high pressure??? Im just saying elites turbo's, pump, injectors ect is clost to 8k no wastegate or egr delete... this is going to get pricey quick!
