Re: just a little overkill
badass setup for sure and I'm sure i'd sound badass, but it's definitely not needed.

Re: just a little overkill
I wonder if it's a divided exhaust housing.

Re: just a little overkill
Check the hotside, it has two ports:
You need to keep them separate or you loose the point of it being twin-scroll.

Re: just a little overkill
If you only run 1 on a divided manifold/turbo setup, you will either only be venting the exhaust gasses out of only half of the runners. Or if you setup the wg outlet pipe on the manifold to connect to both sides of the divide, well then it's really no longer fully divided now.

Yes sir I am. Next year will be fluid dynamics. But for now, let me tell you about chemistry and calculus and statics and how to make 70 plus part designs on pro-e. I never claimed to know everything, I was simply wondering why I have yet to see a manifold with two flanges for wgs.

Didn't really sound like you asked anything, you just assumed the person was an idiot.

I don't think Jakey needs you to tell him how to do any of that. |

Re: just a little overkill
You're right, I never asked. I simple thought it was "just a little overkill." I have since learned that it is necessary on that specific turbo. I don't know a turbo by just looking at it unless it's a 16g or a 50 trim.

Re: just a little overkill
Easy now boys!
Brian, Jakey's comment hints at the fact that maybe you might have taken upon yourself to do a little research into the turbo setup, since you have an engineering interest. You didn't, you just made a comment that tuned out to be silly in retrospect
