How does a v6 turbo work?
I know this is off the topic of hondas. But I was wondering how a single turbo v6 works? I know how a twin turbo v6 works because you just have a turbo and manifold on both sides. But if its single, do they just have it on one side and the other side is just a header? Or do they both collect at some point and place the turbo there? Thanks.

M3's have a inline 6 so the manfiold looks like honda manfiolds only with 2 more runners. VR6's yes i imagine they are turboed in the same manner. Mustang Fox Bod owners usually make their own manifolds by simply putting on the stock headers or short tube headers backwards then connecting them with a Y collector with a turbo and wastegate flange on the end.

Twins theoretically should be more efficient on a v-engine, but it doesn't mean that they must run twins. Look at pro 5.0 guys, they seem to be OK dipping into mid 6's with single turbo V8's

Thats beacuse the rules allow only 1 power adder. how would supercharged guys be able to compete with guys who have two turbos?

Re: (swissturbo)
Yea leave it to Volkswagon to make a single headed V6 motor, geez...
But, yea the manifold sits behind the motor and is just like a honda set up with 2 extra cylinders, a buddy of mine makes an adaptor to fit a T4 turbo onto stock VR manifolds

did i say i could write the book better?
nope
is that book over hyped because the Honda-tech bandwagon approach...YES
do i know corky bell?
yes
does even he say there was a lot more that should have been in there?
yes
are you pathetic becasue you're ignorant as ****?
yes
did you just say that anything with 2 turbos can beat a s/c?
yes
is that a stupid *** uninformed comment?

you said that no s/c car could compete with a twin turbo car.
now, it seems to me that the fastest, quickest, and most powerful turbo cars are ALL single turbo
twin turbos are most of the time a waste. what you can't do with one huge single...can't be done with dual setups either.
you're just a whiny ricer that thinks more turbo makes more power
stop reading maximum boost, and think about things before you say stupid ****

Are you a moron? EVERY class that allows both turbos and superchargers. the turbo cars dominate. the rules state that only one power adder is allowed and its for one reason.. two turbos would make more power than one blower. the only way two turbos are allowed is if they both equal to what one big single would. (so instead of running a single 100mm turbo, you can run two 50mm turbos) thats means you cannot run two 60,70 or 80mm turbos. or the supercharged cars wouldnt be able to compete. now you need to be quiet. you dont know corky bell, you are NOT intelligent, and you have no idea what you are taking about.
