I'll have a look at the twin ARB's, that said I have purposely avoided ARB over the last 5 years, due to having a major issue with every item I purchased.

Re: ARB twin motor air compressor issue
The only time i've had a problem with my ARB twin was when the battery voltage was low.
How ever i did run heavy cable as close to the compressor as possable.

Re: landcruiser CT26 CHRA genuine??
My CT20 sourced from a Surf was leaking oil when I installed it on my 3L motor so I rebuilt it with an ebay kit and had MTQ balance it.
That was two years ago and have had no issues since.
Not sure how much difference there is between a CT20 and 26 but this is how I did it:

I think you will find with performance upgrade's, it about "all"the things you do to the motor that complement each other.
Not just 1 thing that makes a huge inprovment.
If you want big power, get your injector pump & injectors recod & set up properly.

I've got a 3" mandrel with stock dump. The 100 series dump is apparently ok. The 79 series is restrictive and beau desert do a 3" mandrel dump for them.
I think you will find the beaudesert dump pipe is cast iron & 3 1/2"
