For the record, i HAVE looked at the motor. Both turbo's start with their own piping, come into one large pipe going into the intake manifold, then the single boost source, aka everything, goes through the throttle body. Then, the intake is divided between the different runners into the engine. So how is this different then doing a single large set up? Then i'd have one boost source having to feed the motor. Picture should explain my stand point some:



Still going dual 14b's, and i've got a friend doing the welding, and another getting the plates to weld onto the piping for the 14b's. I'm just talking about the IDEA of doing two different sized turbo's. In theory, it should work though.

Most people that have done 14b's actually spool up around 3k or so, but seeing as these come on at around 1.5k rpm's on the DSM's, and your dealing with .5l smaller engine, will take a little while longer.

In theory it should work... It did for the RX-7

However you have 3 cylinders pushing one turbo

If you went to this small/big setup you would have 4 turbos all together, two for each exhaust route

This is unless you went to a big collector in the exhaust to push that one (or two if you want to use the big small setup)

A lot of repiping needs to be done. then figure out where to put the turbos

I don't know if people have done it with 3S... All I know is people usually upgrade the 2 turbos...
