You don't want it like that, trust me, once you see how good VNTs are when closed up, you'll realise why it's pointless doing it like that, you may as well have gone for a big wastegate turbo, it's not dynamic at all, the amount the vanes have to move is miniscule... People are thinking that VNTs are way less responsive than they actually are!!! Vanes fully open, you won't be getting any boost until gone 5k, it's like it's a nasp...

You can't really see the boost gauge, but you can hear the turbo spin up as soon as you go near the throttle... You'll have NO midrange torque if you leave it until 50% throttle! The first part of the video where I'm accelerating lightly, that's maybe 20% throttle - the torque midrange is simply unreal with them set up well...
