Cool! But it is not the first of it's kind SORRY! DRT in Queens NY has done it and has been running this on their race car for like 3 years now. Mid 9's

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

 

well in the picture you can see one turbo just left off the engine block, and then one on the right with a painted compressor..

at least, that's what i see!

I see that too on the main page but nothing written up on it, I was looking everwhere for it to no avail.

 

oh well.. im sure someday if it lays down some really decent numbers it will get put up on the internet in more detail. on a side note that dudes shirt matches the car paint, cool!

 

nice car, i saw that as the cover car on the latest ZOOM magazine here in new zealand

 

a 12.9? hmmm something is a lil off, maybe its just me..

Um...Low boost setting

 

Its no biggie my friend did it to his 4 cyc vaxhual. Wasnt that impressive, he fed 2cyc/turbo.

 

Nice, but sorry I gotta bring up those flames

 

ehhh any more pics???

 

Whoa!!!,...Holy ****!....

Twin turbo!...That has to be faster than these single turbo pussies!

Sorry...but I had to.

 

lol bryson ur such a nice guy

 

all that extra **** with the two turbos and only 340whp?

ill stick with a single.

 

i'm so not impressed.

 

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..

liam

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 .

 

Seems like alot of work for a 12.9 and 340 @ the wheels. Maybe its just me.

 

most people just go twins for the show, it def. looks nice though.

 

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
