You need to get the motor out first RayRay.
And at the end of the day the only thing that will be twin turbo'd will be your workbench!    
Hell, the cabinet is already quintuple-turbo'ed . . .

Nah, Cobra got put on hold (again!) because some jackhole, lol, decided to hit my contour, and prompt some major repairs/upgrades. Between my wife being home for her summer break, me starting my new job, and generally being really really lazy, I haven't even finished getting the engine out of the car, lol.

It says Duratec and not Yamaha.. lol
It also says "Noble", and not Contour. Unless the engine bay and subframe are magically identical (and I have been misinformed) then it is still irrelevant.
Sorry you wasted your time looking up all those links, and posting them, though, bro.

Oh man, I feel real salty. Just looking at how ridiculous this whole post is. If anyones reading this anymore, forget I ever existed and have a good one. It is people like me who probably piss people off in the wrong way. Sorry to anyone who cares. Thanks guys.

Y wont i go with the MMT6. b/c the internals arent strong enough. guys on the noble website arent too please. the interals are breaking are b/c of the high torque load. Quaife doesnt make custom gears for the MMT6 yet and will be a while before they do. so 4400 for the M400 and about 5k for custom trans(trany 250, gears 3000, lsd 1000, and 750 to HMS for install and build) the uk spec MTX75 uses a cable for the gearshift and on the 95 contour its a rod shift gearbox. so before to think you have someone already figured out and want to critisize them, make sure you have the facts. PM or email at archangelnj25@comcast.net if you have any Q's for me. i understand the STS turbo makes power but if you use a single turbo instead of a twin turbo it'll make more power. u figure 750 per gt28r when u can get a g3582r for about 1400 and make around the same if not more power than 2 gt28r's.
If you make 75k a year and live at home still, you're a [censored] moron.
