Twin turbo? [Merged 11-6]

[TurnUpTheBoost8]

yea a nice t88. but i tihnk the one with most hp ive seen in a mag had twin hks 3420s or soemthin pushin 1110 hp. sick. mm supras.

 

[RamenPride]

I was wondering if some one has or if it is possible to run a twin turbo setup on a 1g???

yes, it's been done before using two T-25's. since no one followed suit, that should tell you something right there.

.... JK but really.. its not worth it, just like running a dsm with a v8 turbo, you're prolly gonna have to custom make everything, lots of money, time, work etc. and there will still be a 4cyl turbo dsm that will woop your ass.

just look at supras for insance, like posted above, most high HP supras have one large single turbo, if you have all that money, and invest it in mods instead of custom fabrication, i guarantee you will be makin more hp.

I once saw a muscle car in a mag that had 8 turbos, yes EIGHT. it was like makin 800 hp, and the owner even said yeah, it would be making a lot more hp with just a bigger single turbo, but i wanted something no one had...

Learn from those who have tried in the past But its good you're thinkin outside the box

There are cars ( RX-7, Supra's ) that can break into 11's with the twin turbos but it requires a lot more work to do so. The reason that most of those cars switch to one big turbo is because you can put out the same amount of power, but you dont have to run such high levels of boost. If you really want your car to be fast, the best idea is to just go with one big turbo.

It's been done once a long time ago.

How about searching an reading through some of these thread about it.

I do agree with the previous post in that there are single turbo setups that are more efficient.
This would be extremely expensive but possible. The last time I was reading about the tt setup most people agreed that the engine needed to run diesel. That should give you some idea of how expensive this setup would be.
You might want to consider a direct port no2 system or if you just want to be different maybe a nitrous system that spools a 20g until you reach a desired psi.

Well the reason his gets ragged on is the same reason most people get ragged on. They come here with an idea THEY think is brand new, THEY never search, then THEY decided to post. This has been covered to death. It is as simple as that. It is his own fault for not looking.

Exactly. Those of us that have been around more than three months get tired of seeing this same crap.

If you think it is so interesting there is plenty of info on this topic already if you search.

thanks guys. i posted a link to help out and i'm dubbed "the bad guy"

Cause all the threads discussing it have either been closed or deleted. GJ on being sarcastic and blasting people for thinking though. Also GJ on linking to threads that link to other threads that are closed. Search is so l33t. Let me tell you.

Not at all. I was just pointing out why he gets bashed. I even quoted the person I was refering to.

GJ on doing a half assed search. It took me maybe 5 minutes to come up with these post. Some are multiple pages and GASP not closed. If you search half assed your reuslt will be half assed.

It is just as good as the user makes it. If you can't spell e-x-h-a-u-s-t , your results may vary.

the search results aren't working anymore I wonder if the thread was deleted.

 

[PokinatchaPunk]

Kinda puzzled why this isn't closed yet.... Maybe we should add the rest of the top 7 reposts?

#1-Which turbo should I get?
#2-How fast will this set-up get me
#3-Crankwalk!!!!
#4-I want to make my A/T into a manual
#5-I want to make my N/T into a Turbo
#6-(Haven't seen it in awhile) I want a targa top!
#7-I want to make my fwd into an awd

You also forgot "1ga into 1gb///2ga into 2gb conversion!!!help!!!!!!", and "what exhaust is the best!".

wow. why dont we also just turn this into a site like Club DSM. Close the forum and archive everything. put a search bar at the top. I mean the number one answer I see on this forun is some version of "use the search".

I understand that people dont like explaining things more than 300 times or so, but geez.

here..... this search posted 500 results and took 8.5 seconds... Linkey

see my point?

If people didn't post questions they could easily find by searching, nobody would have to tell them to use the search.

ok now i was reading up on the benefits on having twin turbo's or one big turbo.

a friend of mine is about to purchase 300ZX TT . so me and a couple of friends were talking about would it be better to run a big turbo or twin turbo for his 300.

after hearing about the benefits a supra got by taking there twin turbo's out and putting one turbo, i said it would be better to have one big turbo . one of my friends said no performance wise it would be better to have both turbo's, simply for less lag :thumbdown .

so i went on the 300zx forums, most of the said its harder to run twin turbo's on a 300 because its a V-enigne, while supras are inline that is why it is more logically and easier to but one big turbo on a supra.

my main question is will a big turbo setup be better performance wise than having a twin turbo system? me and a couple of friends have been debating this all night.

oh the question does not pertain to putting twin turbo on my dsm. just swapping in one big turbo on a pre twin turbo car(ex RX7, SUPRA, 300ZX). thanks in advance

 

[Gary 420A RS]

having a setup like the supra and the rx7 is better to do that.. i say stay with the dual's and just beef them up... iam not sure if there sequential or not like the others are.. but if you have enough power generating to the turbo's lag doesn't matter.

 

[grizzly]

on supra's and rx7s their turbo setup is usually sequential. which means a small turbo spools up the second one or a small one is used in the lower rpms then a bigger one is used in the higher rpms. in the 300 zx since it is a v6 3 exhaust ports spool a turbo and the othere 3 the other turbo. in my opinion it is better for a v engine to run a true twin like the 300zx because yes you get a little more lag but once you spool your killer. i mean your not gonna put on a turbo that doesn't spool till 5k rpms if you daily driving, heck even draging i mean thats just stupid cause you loose a lot of power through the powerband, in that car you would most likly put on 2 turbos like the b16gs or something with similar spool cause right there you get great top end and an awsome launch. now with the supra and rx7 since they have the exhaust ports all on one side so it is much better to run the single turbo. since the 300zx has it on 2 sides piping will be hard and the lag is gonna be there cause of the long piping, not to mention a really really really and i mean really tight engine bay. i mean common you basically have to take out the engine to change the turbos. sorry for the long explanation, but i dunno how else to explain it.

this is still debatable though.
