Don't go twins. old schoool stuff that never worked. I had a '93 TT 300z I ditched it for a single. turbos have changed alot in the last few years.

Just save yourself the time, aggrevation and the inevitable trial and error issues and either just toss a V8 into it or get a supercharger kit. Will be alot cheaper that route.

I don't think you're gonna find a "kit" anywhere. But I know this guy did it to his 5.9l The 3.9 would be essentially the same exact setup.


His name is Kris Burl. He lives in Michigan and this setup has taken him a long long time. And I think it's still in progress. But maybe you could shoot him a message and get his email and ask him some specifics. I'm sure he'd help you out. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/568210/2
