Benefit to this type of turbo intake?
to me it seems like it would just cause the inlet air to be jumbled around decreasing actual air flow...

Originally twin turbo therefore has two maf sensors. Still has two maf sensors but one turbo. Thats my stab at it

That was going to be my guess.

They have been doing that since the early 90's with twin turbo RB26DETT. The conversion to speed density was expensive so the dual MAF sensor adaptor has to be utilized on single turbo upgrades that do not use a speed density computer.

I never thought of it that way, but it makes sense. I always though it was just for looks or something, but that would make sense if it originally had two MAF sensors and they didn't want to convert it to one.
