Bahaha I'm usually all for trying new things and not bashing those who do, but that's ridiculous. The funniest part is that someone actually took this seriously enough to mock and fab the whole complicated thing up. correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn't that result in a TON of HEAT?

Oil feeds are pressurized. They don't care about height.

Seems kinda silly. You notice even MK IV Supras go from twins to single turbo to make big power. Simple setups are proven.

There is a company in the UK testing a twin turbo setup I think. Supposed to be pretty cool but I guess we will just wait and see what it is they came up with. I think they are using two stock turbos.

Quad scroll FTMFW... Think about how divided the exhaust pulses will be and how much more efficient it would be this way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Probably out spool and be WAY more efficient up top than a TS system and of course BLOW AWAY an open scroll turbo.

Can we get this with external WGs? The look of that setup with FOUR Tial 38mm WGs would be SICK!!!!!

What are your thoughts on a twin turbo setup for an evo?

Without some sort of sequential setup, twins dont make much sense. Complexity and restrictions of a sequential setup will limit top end power.... add in twice the bearing shafts and you see where this is going.

Two quotes to think about.

Occam's razor applied to designing a turbo kit: "All other things being equal, the simplest solution is the best." attributed to William of Ockham

Have you caught any of the threads on the MLR?

Hard to believe but we will see when they release it... if they do.
