Hi Steve,
Thanks for the input.  Is your friend in SC, by any
chance.  I recall a Lancair in the Greenville
vicinity that made a first flight earlier this year
with a turbo 20B.  I wanted to take a ride out to
see his installation, but can not remember his name
or email address.
Thanks,
Joe

  Joe,
  I read and agree with the answers that you
received from others on the list.  The twin turbos
are not a good option.
  I friend of mine is running a 20B in a Lancair,
and he went with a T04 turbo.  Since you will have
to fabricate an exhaust system anyways, I think that
the  T04 is the way to go.  Get a turbo with a high
a/r ratio.  Nothing lower than .96.  The 1.26 is
even better.  The housing will be larger, and
require a larger heat shield, but they are much
better suited to continuous operation.

    Steve, Dave, or anyone else using the stock
turbo(s)

    On my 20B installation I am considering using
the stock turbo system.  I would only be using low
boost levels.  I have a couple of questions for
anyone who is using the stock turbos.  Were your
systems twins turbos?  Did you leave both turbos in
place?  Is over speeding an issue for our mode of
operation?  What else should I know about using the
stock turbos?

    Thanks,
    Joe
