Default Will i make power at 6-7k with 42/48 TT?

I want to TT my 42/48 Ls Integra.

Probably make a log mani for each of the 2 ports and have an individual 4 psi wg for each turbo. My question is will it raise my powerband all of the way up to 7k?

Right now with the single 42/48 i hit pull spool at 2800 and it dies at like 5500.

You obviously haven't been aroubd HMT too long to know that hondas and TT is kinda a wasted cause. I would say get a better turbo all together. Then get rid of the shitty flow LS head for a b16 or at least slap reground cams in it.

yeh man 42/48 is way small for a b18, a lotta people think its too small for d16's. bigger turbo + a vtec head and maybe even a b16 or gsr tranny if you got dough

Honestly, I know in your head you're thinking it's a good way to get some more flow without sacrificing spool time, but just save up, buy a 60 trim and then sell your old 50 trim, less time, less money and less hassle than trying to go twins, unless like Whitey and Jeff, you just gotta be different.

two turbo's with wastegates that open at 4psi doesn't = 8psi.

Two turbo's with wastegates that open at 4psi = 4psi.

Plus twin turbos on an inline 4 has been done and proven to be a waste of fabrication and just doesn't have any point.
