Re: Odd Ball TT Question

On a 3/S, half the engine feeds one turbo and the other half of the engine feeds the other turbo. If you put different sized turbos on each side, the smaller turbo becomes the restriction and you can't run much more boost than what the smaller turbo can handle. If you do, you'll just make the smaller turbo run super hot and not really gain any more power.

I have seen a few 3/Ses put a 13g on the front and leave the 9b in the rear. This is good for a minor upgrade. But its really only a small upgrade from stock, and really not the best way to go about it.

Supras and RX7s feed one smaller turbo into a larger turbo. That is probably what your co-worker is thinking about. The turbos feed off of the same header and go into the same intake track. Very different plumbing from a 3/S.

later,
Curt
