Now that sounds interesting. Could you use just the internal gates on a setup like this?

So the compressor flow is the same as a S400 but with a 82mm turbine wheel versus a 96mm on the S400.

I got on it a bit harder today and saw 15psi by 1500rpms.
You have my full attention now Is this the regular gt4294? What would be a quick housing for a 24v?
