You want to make a 4 cylinder twin turbo setup?

RyAn007 is onto something. Why would you want to TT a 4 cyl? I've seen peeps do it, but really don't think it would be as efficient as a good motor build and a good turbo.

thats is true, and thats what i believe BUT i have seen a few twin turbo 4cyl that can keep up with the biggest of the single turbo's guys. and then there is the Ambious that everyone has to be Unique/Re invent the wheel. So if you got the cash and time go for it just let us know how it turns out.....

My Honest Opnion. the more turbo's you have the more problems you have in your life ....

Really, a 4 cylinder has enough problems spooling up a pretty good size turbo, if it is a high displacement 4 cylinder than it would be half way plausible, but this is a pretty stupid thing and really in the end when you save the cash and do just as well if not better on a single larger turbo, you are going to hit your self. Now in reality for this to be halfway legit, youd have to take something like a 2.4l and stroke that out, that is the only way I ever seeing anything like this plausible, if you are planning to do this on some kind of honda motor in the 1.5-2.0 range youd have to be kidding me, take my word for it, stick with a single.

1+3, 4+2.
And why two 14b's? sounds pretty gay to me. If someone was to waste their time and money setting up a twin turbo H, why not do a sequential setup? Something small like a 13g paired up with something like T4 ( just a random example). Small turbo boosts low range untill bigger turbo spools, killing turbo lag for big turbo setups. Still waste of money/time, but at least do something worthwhile if your gonna do it.

your not going to be reinventing anything its been done and better than you can even imagine so all you will be doing is something that has been done before but shittier
