Heard some very good news from a little birdy that fpv are planning on doing a twin turbo typhoon within 2 years or something? What do you guys think of this dont know how accurate this guy is but has proven to be good in the past with ford predictions.

I didn't think you could twin turbo a Strait Six?

and why not?

It has been used to reduce lag in engines before today and with success so its a real possiblility but with technology nowdays it is thought of as old hat.

Interesting they talk of it!!!

Cummins used it on the K19 engines the last one I saw was about 5 years ago in a 100Ton excavator Hitachi.

The same engine now is called a QSK and has gone back to the single Turbo but with a large but far more efficient turbo.

The emission laws dictate most of these new ideas and as they went from mechanical fuel to electronic they could do away with the first turbo but as time creeps on they might well have to go back to the twin to reduce emmisions.

Not an XR6T but still a BIG six cylinder with a Turbo or two all the same hehhehehe

You can do anything to a straight six

I'd be very surprised - the gains would far outweigh the costs. Most manufacturers who tried the twin turbo (sequential style) setup have now reverted to a single turbo. With advances in technology turbos now have very little spool time and there is really minimal benefits from twins on a straight engine.

Single's give more power so I dont know why theyre chasing such an idea

And the Supra

they just need to get a hold of the twin-scroll turbo setup.. that sh*t would rock on a GT40 turbo
