MrWong, i thought you said you need to save money? What can you possibly do with 7 tiny (micro IMO) turbo that iVTEC and MIVEC give out more power then them?

Plus you have to re-seal them, its not worth the trouble.

How about a 6 throttle body, 6 turbo with MIVEC setup? :-)

You would even have 1 turbo to use as a spare!

Their off late model Saab 9-5's and usualy need 'seals' replaced due to the cars not having turbo timers and owners driving them hard and switching off when the turbo is still hot, some issue with the angle they were mounted at (i think), can't remember exactly, google it. They only ran very low boost on the saabs, i think 4psi. My guess is it would go allright but you might loose some possible power gain at top end.
T2 flange I think

You could hi-flow it and re-trim it. I think would be good for your application. However as we said with Sam, once u make boost you will not want to stop.
