Default Check this out, QUAD turbo...

I've heard of twin turbo and all, but 4 turbos? Granted, its a camaro, but still looks pretty impressive. Check it out.

I favor those in the single turbo faction: http://www.ls1motorsports.com/Project-Camaro.asp . Im pestering my suitemate to sell one of his corvettes and adopt their kit (now on sale) to his 99 Z28.

His car was on Hot Rod Tv about 1 1/2 months ago. Nice set up and impressive. I don't think they have it dialed in yet or have acyually gotten a clean run yet. We can still learn alot from the Domestic guys and vice versa

Okay it damn cool and all....But whats the point of having 4 turbos?

I dont know much about turbos so mabey im missing the obvious here, but couldnt you get the same power from just one BIG turbo?
