just wondering, is it possible?

tell me what you think

 

The better question here is whats the point......

And yes, for the right amount of money and skill, anything is possible.

Im not going to get into technical babble about this, Ill leave my engineering side out. Thats my story and Im sticking to it.

 

How could you put a twin turbo on a car with one manifold?

 

is the 4-cylinder engine enough for the twin turbo setup?

there is no point, i am just wondering.
well who knows what ppl would do in terms of mods.
My mod. plan right now:
-WORKS brain (regular or boost)
-Cat Back or Turbo Back Exhaust
-Boost Controller & Gauge
-VTA or Recirc. BOV
-HKS RS or other "good" intake

still waiting for more reviews on current available mods.

 

The twin turbo setup is possible, however, you would be shooting yourself in the foot. First of all and most important, the Evo comes stock with a big 16g. To add another 16g onto to the motor would only make the turbos work extremely hard as they would not be feed with enough force to produce a positive outcome. The best be, if one was had there hearts set on a twin turbo setup, would to either goi with two smaller turbos that would not need alot of force to generate the power or go with a somewhat of a sequential setup. Use a smaller turbo to help boost a larger turbo. Either way the idea is not a very good one as in the end the cost of attempting this setup would be much wiser spent on mods to the existing engine and you could get a Frankenstein turbo on 20g for the same money and be boost some serious horsepower.

Yea but why would you want to do that? I mean the Supra guys actually do away with their twin setup to go to one big single turbo because of how much more efficient it is at making power.

 

I totally agree, even the RX7 guys do the same thing. There is no need for a twin turbo setup on the Evo VIII, it would be counter productive and a waste of time and money

 

A twin turbo setup is for faster spool up and a single big turbo is for more power is what I've been told.

 

there is absolutely no truth to saying that twin turbos spool faster. they actually have a greater chance of having turbulence which will make them spool slower. this is coming from a supra owner that did ditch the twins for one big single. 'if you want better performanc just upgrade from the stock turbo to something bigger and you wont waste money for no reason.

 

I can speak from RX7 experience, a twin turbo setup is great for low end power, but it's such a complicated head ache of a mess that it's not worth it. I would definitely stick with a single turbo and not look elsewhere.

 

You are not 100% correct. If you are running twin turbos sequentially you will have spool up at lower RPM. I know from experience with my RX7 that when I ran my twins sequentially I had nearly full spool up by 3k RPMs, where as when I ran them non-sequentially (as in working as one big turbo) I didn't get full spool until nearly 4700RPMs.

 

Its been done on a B-Series honda ...its actually damn cool
I don't know if they still run the car or not...but it was a drag civic that competed in NHRA SC...

If you wanted to you could do a QUAD turbo EVO 8
The first Triple Turbo supra was just completed btw...probably won't make T-88 numbers...but it will be quick...

 

Subaru Legacys in Japan had the WRX engine with a twin turbo setup for easier driveability.

 

Now i had an s2000 it would be retarded to twin turbo any 4 cylinder but i even seen it on the F20C engine in the s2000, now my opinion, wouldnt there be insufficient exhaust pressure from a 4 cylinder for 2 turbos? i think lag would be worse!

 

I've seen a 1995 talon with a custom manifold split in two with TWO turbo's and a supercharger.. sweetest most expensive setup i've EVER seen.
