no that was year ago...hes upgraded...many times....right now hes driving a new viper srt-10...before that a 99 diablo rdstr...before that a 91 diablo...he also had a nice m3...and he has a 911...and a coulple trucks...ill ask if he has any pics or slips though...
and those posts right after mine were funny...but im not lying..

I must say that this idea is pretty cool...not that it'll work without tons of tuning, but its nonetheless cool...and how bout this guy...after all the joking and "flaming" not one of his posts badmouths anyone...and he takes the criticism and learns from it...now if all the tuners could be like him....BRAVO AND GOOD LUCK!

The pisc are somewhere in the first couple of pages. Happy hunting.

The reason you use a sequential setup, is because a large turbo does not offer good boost response at a lower engine speed (and lower exhaust volumes).

So, you use a smaller turbo under these conditions to give the car a little "punch" and to help spool the larger turbo. Then, once the exhaust volume has gotten to the point where the larger turbo can create the necessary boost, you sort of "switch" over to it.

you know, the other day i was thinking about this. i am glad i found this thread. looks like i might just get a 20g or a t28 killer cause i dont feel like doing all sorts of crazy custom things to make my car work. i think it would be easier to use nitrous to spool a larger turbo than a twin turbo setup, but i dont know for sure, and since i have no money im not going to worrry about it. .

Has anybody ever thought of placing 2 turbos in series instead of parallel. I do not thinki this will be helpfull for us but the energy usage is much lower...

I don't think this is a viable option. The energy loss through one turbo is such that the second turbo wouldn't work quite as well.

Additionally, you'd have to run much bigger turbine housings that you otherwise would, to keep from creating a huge restriction in the exhaust. That, coupled with the energy losses, is going to make for one slow spooling car.

I just bought a t4. I'm planning to use the t4 as my daily turbo. I was wondering if I should go piggy back or standalone. I want the best results with the least amount of cost.

 

[PieTSI]

Since you say this T4 will be your daily turbo I would go with DSMLink for a tuning system. A full standalone system would not work out too well for a car that is driven often. You would have to switch to a 95 eprom ecu to get the DSMlink though.

cool.
Thanks braa!

If you can do it....i think the best way a twin turbo setup is to have one smaller sized turbo and one huge one. SO at acceleration the small turbo will boost the car and the big turbo will take the backseat, then when higher speeds are achieved, the small turbo will spool up the bigger turbo, so the smaller turbo will wait as did the bigger turbo at the start. Then the bigger turbo will take over and bring your car to very high speed. That's what i've heard would be best for twin turbos....have a small turbo for better acceleration, and have a bigger turbo for higher speeds. Thats' what i think..

GOD I WANNA DO A TWIN TURBO SETUP ON A DSM....... would be so much fun to do and show off......o well guess ill leave it to him.

C'mon guys, TWINS is so out of style go with TRIPPLE

is that a supra? i cant really tell. But anyway that looks bad ass, especialy the 3 filters right there all together like that. I wonder how well it actually works performance wise.

 

[CornerHard]

If you look at the headlight, you can tell it's a mkiv Supra. Triple turbos on it are an interesting idea.

If you're interested in the website of the guy who built the twin turbo laser, it's here: http://www.ddynopower.com/ I haven't found any pics of the engine bay though. He claims the twin T25s have similar spool to a 20G.

 

[ARTSUPRA]

sorry to burst the bubble but the guy in Mk4 supra made only around 600RWHP which is very little, I suppose the top end flow whould be a problem where 3 small turbos don't flow as good as t78 lets say and create alot more heat. Altough I can imagine he doesn't have to wait until 4500RPM to build full boost.

 

[allgripnoslip]

redpest850- im pretty sure what you are talking about is a sequential setup. it would be useless to have 2 same sized turbos in a sequential set-up.

 

[EclipseGST-95]

set it up like this...btw i dont know what kinda car this is...

 

[greenmachine97]

What on earth is that? I cant even begin to get an idea of what kind of car that is! besides terribly badass!

That looks like a Lambo.

Ya, its a lambo with 1200 hp, some guy in japan owns it

 

[greenmachine97]

:laugh: Crazy-Ass, Japanese wangan racers! those guys are crazy!

 

[InferiorWang]

I wanna see the new chrysler four twelve setup. A v-12 with 4 turbos!?! That's just interesting.

Are you sure that is a lambo??
