I would think if there was any power to be found by doing that, more racers would be doing it. I know bisi does it, but I'm pretty sure he's a fucken rocket scientist, so of course it works. Try turboing your car with that.

individual throttlebodies and one big *** turbo seems like a good idea to me. it should make power.

If you were building a show car yes. For the street NO. It would probobly help in high RPM racing applications but I think it would kill your low RPM power. It looks like a lot of work and money to me for no good reason.

There is also no room for sensors.You have to buy the adapters that dont seem to be cheap.Deffenitly not for daily driving in my opinion!

i think indivitual throttle body setups are ment for NON-Forced Induction motors because honestly how are you gonna run boost through those? they connect right to your intake ports i believe (maybe wrong) if you want FI dont even consider that, but if your lookin N/A then it might be worth it
