turbo hookup
 

ok firstly im currently deployed in a very hot desert place not in the united states. now with that out the way id like to say whats up to everyone and get some help for my build when i get back from this place. either on leave or just when i get back(?????????). Now to the questions - ive noticed a turbo here at work on 10kw generator(its a 3cyl manufactured by mitsubishi), its complete size is about that of a softball. i was able to see a new one up close before it was exchanged for a blown one. it weighs about 3lbs. the intake to the compressor is about the size of a half dollar, and spools up very quickly just from blowing into the exhaust housing. according to the mechanic they produce about +/-12psi now there may be chance that i can accquire one or more ;) when i get back home. would it be rational to connect 2 or more up to a b16a1 and if so how in the hell would i run a dual turbo setup...as i have done nothing over a single setup? any help would be of great help. thanks and laterx from the middle of nowhere!

ps - ill add some pics probally tomorrow or the next day

I wanna see some pics of this 3 lb turbo... sounds sweet.

hook one up normally, then connect the discharge, instead of going to the downpipe, to the exhaust inlet of the second one? or make a cusom mani and power each off of 2 runners?

well its like 3 in the am here and ill have to wait to harrass my roommate for his camera for the pics but im wondering how to i setup the charge pipes to the IC primarily or if im going to have to run some sort of special Y pipe in order to get them into one IC or use 2? im pretty much to the understanding that im going to have to go full custom on my header.

that made no sense to me.

there have been 2 twin turbo set ups here on HMT, one was by Whitey, and other was by Abaz(jeff) they both used 2 IHI turbos, 2 cylinders feeding each turbo. Jeffs setup used a Intercooler with 2 inlets, and one outlet.

This is jeffs setup
