Can someone tell me the difference between a twin-scroll turbo and a normal turbo if any.

Thanks,

 

Garrett has a good explaination about how twin-scroll works.

Oh wow...same link as Yojimbo.

 

I spent too long browsing other links I found in the search to post it before you!!

 

I have heard that the twin scroll turbo is something used on small-displacement production cars that cannot run high compression ratios due to low-octane pump gas. I haven't research it to find out how. I am familiar with the Garret web page and the application on large commercial diesels.

Anyone have an engineering explanation?
