Unfortunately they don't mention anything about the twin turbo set up on their page. I dunno why.

Been searching and there is SOME mention of the twin turbos but no articles. Just a write up when Ralphy Estevez ran 9.65 vs Lisa Kubo's 9.5X

The twin turbo craze is upon us now. May this end soon

To each his own i guess. Do you have a dyno chart?

Is there really ANY advantage of running two small turbo's on a 4 cylinder?

Ive always wanted to do a *sequential* twin turbo setup on a honda. Using two 14b turbos. But it would take a mile of piping and valves. Maybe someday..

You can find used smallish turbos cheap at junkyards. You could get four or five for the price of a nice new 'large' turbo. Some people probably score free ones from friends who upgrade. If you can do your own fab work, the extra complexity and construction might not be a big issue.

And you would get more points entering a show/competition. And you'de probably **** a bunch of **** retentative people off. For some people that might count for a lot. As for the many disadvantages... well you guys already got those covered.

Sequential turbos set ups sux. On MK4s there is a huge power drop in the transition between the turbos and its overly complex. Reason most Supras go singles is because of the cost compared to a parallel twin set up. Parallel HKS GT twins Cost .

i still dont get the point of twins on the motor, i guess for show purposes it makes sense...but its not practical, u can get single turbo setups that spool just as good, easier to maintain and setup and push out more power than that setup..well, to each their own
