Twin turbo? [Merged 11-6]

[andymoraitis]

I didn't see the pricing but by the looks of it he started it and that's about it.

On the "tech info" page he ripped this straight from VFAQ or somewhere with no credit unless we the first to wirte it

Weight savings that wont kill you:
Remove the padding under the carpet.
Remove the tar-like sound deadener on the floor.
Remove the heat shields above exhaust and/or drive shaft.
Remove front lap and shoulder belts and replace with 4 or 5 point harness.
Remove spare tire and all accessories.
Remove rear seats and seat belts.
Remove all unnecessary hardware from hatch area.
Remove power steering system.
Remove a/c system. (if you want).
Remove all of the carpet. Front and rear.
Remove hood latch and cable and use hood pins.
Remove all inner plastic wheel wells.
Remove factory fog lamps
Convert stock steel wheels to an aluminum alloy.
Convert rear hatch and rear quarter windows to a light weight polymer.
Convert stock radiator to an aluminum radiator. (also allows better cooling).
Convert gas tank to fuel cell.


Weight savings that might kill you:
Cut the front bumper so that the mounting brackets for the bumper cover are left.
Remove the rear steel bumper.

I think that's from Buschur's site...

I could do better welds drunk and blindfolded...


and I've never welded before.

Hey don't worry a stage one kit will only run ya 4200 bucks which includes 2 14bs and no intercooler...

That's the more retarded than the first one. What do you gain by running them parallel on an I4? At least run them sequential.

Ya I guess I missed that but, that one does have creativeness of the the new one with all the sweet bends and custome parts.

hmm maybe I was reading it wrong but I thought stage one came with a "stage 1 16g" and a "big stage 3 evo 16g," which is a huge problem with the way he set it up. YOu can't run two different size turbo's in a sequential setup the larger one will "choke" the smaller one and the smaller one won't be able to spool.

That is why it is in the hangout it is pretty much for pointless threads!

volkswagons use k03s on all of there 1.8t models and their "larger" turbos are k04s which are probably about the size of a t25. The k03 looks small compared to a t25.

/end thread.

its not about can or cant be done. anything can be done with the right amount of money or knowledge.

its just not efficient. a 2.0 is barely enough displacement to spool one turbo, let alone two efficiently. and besides, the worlds highest powered supras are that way because one sized to the goals can work more efficiently than two.

Arent pretty much all the "high powered" supras running a single turbo? Just wondering as every fast supra i have seen has been converted to run usually a GT55-91 or something like that.

No wonder he doesn't have any friends

What a waste of a dsm. Someone please make this thread die.

 

[TurboSportAWD]

At least he did it to a non-turbo. I like how the one exhaust pipe loops up over the upper radiator hose. Some fine engineering right there.

I believe that a lot of the twin turbo supras are even converted over to running a single turbo, because they've found it to be more efficient in their power gains as well.

 

[Whiplash]

I would never buy something like that.

 

[hereitcomes]

Im actually going to outdo both of those guys and make a tri-turbo. But then I will realize what I have done, and blow my car up becuase it is the stupidest idea ever. Too bad these fellows didnt realize how much crack they had consumed.

Hasn't this been discussed before?

Technically, the below DSM has two turbos in it

Alot of supra's run big singles.

I prefer the HKS 3037 twin kit on a street car.
