Default Possible **Twin Turbo** Set-up

Heres the deal, my friends and i began to throw the idea around and just had a question or two for you more knowledgeable people. I havent heard of it being done, doesnt seem that hard, but i would like to try to twin turbo my jdm b16. We were thinking of using two T25's with of course a custom manifold. My question would be is if smaller turbos boost ends up falling off at higher rpms, would two small turos act like one decent size one, or would the turbos peak at mid-range then level off like one small turbo would? Have a good bit of knowledge on the subject but clueless the outcome of this set-up. Any help would be appreciated.


- By the way, bashing me is alright if you think it is pointless, hahaha. The turbos would run the same or maybe cheaper than one medium size one and building my on tubular manifold would save me some greens. Just want to try to do something i havent seen before and give myself a challenge. Thanks for any educated guesses and any help.

Yay or nay on the idea?

nay imo. it would be cool and whatnot but theres no need for it. if u look on mase's website masetuning.com the top dog on his case studies was actually twon turbo from my gathering of info. and the reason why he did that was to get insane numbers and still get some drivability. noone really knows much about the setup past that tho. if u want to do it and have no time go ahead but its a waste of time imo. and yes the little turbos will run out of breathe

You only have 1 bank of cylinders.. I know the supra does too but the stock system is sequntial, all 6 runners spool one turbo then after a certain rpm, the second turbo prespools a little, later the second turbo comes on 100%, so u get good low,mid and top end. I cant see what ur doing working too well.
