S.A. MSP's Twin Turbo Build Thread

[S.A.MSP]

Yes, that's right, TWIN TURBO, i have thought long and hard about this and i'm doing it, i have a good picture in my head about what i want my setup to look like but feel free to give suggestions if i had artistic skills i would draw it out.


Stay tuned, more to come!!!



PS: if you don't have anything to say that makes sense, go rub one out and stay out of this thread just a friendly warning!

Not sure what your thinking.. but maybe 2 smallish turbos (maybe twin 25's?) and have them facing opposite of each other. the intake wouldnt be hard since i assume your going standalone. Then have one of those intercoolers like the ones made for Nissan 350z (like 2 intakes and 1 outtake to go to the TB) mount that in the front. i would imagine something like that... make sure you get a standalone that can control boost BY GEAR (such as Haltech E8). That way in 1st gear your not hitting full boost and just spinning your wheels.

 

[cmahlig]

subbin, i think this is a great idea and shouldnt be too hard

 

[crashkelly]

Unless you are putting one small and one giant turbo on there isnt really any point (i assume that is your plan though). Plus make sure you have a bulletproof bottom end!

 

[starscream2k1]

correct me if i am wrong, but i dont think the bottom end is the main issue (like i mean for twins or even anything with some decent boost you need or should rather be forged and all that (so i agree you do need to be forged/built bottem end)) but putting that type of power thru the tranny. I mean that is more worry some.. lol.. i can only imagine the Tranny is gonna look like and if you have LSD oh boy... maybe a quaffe or something. I wonder how his turbo setup is going to be? twin same size? or twin sequential? etc....

 

[djarkitek]

well even though i dont see how this could work in my head since there are two many factors making this impossible. it would be cool to just see it done even though it were never really driven....or maybe turned on..but not driven, heh. sub

it works
it will work
just think about it
in my head i can fit two turbos
with exhaust and all...
we can put one turbo in the front like the msp has and one turbo under the tranny next to the firewall.
or you could route the exhaust to the tranny side and put the turbos side to side and route the exhaust under the tranny.
intercooler wise, well, like someone else said, an intercooler that has to inlets and one 2 1/4" outlet...
very doable...
tunning should be the same...

you need all 4 cylinders pushing both turbos, not just 2 per turbo

Id have to guess that you'd need extra or bigger injectors if you are flowing that much air though...

 

[Alejo_NIN]

dude, the argument is how to fit the extra turbo....fuel ain';t an issue
i even think that at 9psi, the msp ecu is rich enough for both turbos...lol

 

[sandspeed]

twins?? I don't know about that, I would just go with one "big" or a bigger turbo if I were you.
Good luck though

the talk of twin turbos always seems to pop up once in awhile...If someone would actually do it and make it streetable it would be different and pretty cool in my opinion. But i dont forsee it happening.

 

[fr0st]

a 1JZGTE in a firends supra has twin turbo.. there toyota ct-12 and very tiny.. but theres no lag what so ever..

 

[MSP608]

what exactly are you thinking for your setup?

my opinion: only way you might be able to pull it off with two gt28rs's would be to get a awr half sized race radiator and fit one of the turbos where the stocker sits, then another off to about where brian mp5t has his turbo mounted. piping running down and over to the passenger side and meeting before the intercooler. then from the intercooler route it like the MAM intercooler is done through that hole on the driver side to the throttle body.

thats the only way i think it could work. you'd probably half to cut out some of your frame in the engine bay for the manifold/downpipes.

pointless project but power to ya if you pull it off.

yeah and if he goes the way of Brianmp5t he better be ready to make a giant custom manifold!

problem is:

IMO, a 2.0 liter displacement engine wont be able to blow adequately in to 2 GT28rs's.... think of the lag.. you have to blow to 2 urbos.. if most stock twin turbo cars use tiny turbos must have a reason to be..

the bigger it is the more juice it needs.. imagine 2

 

[Alejo_NIN]

we hve already established that two gt28rs won't work

what's a smaller turbo?

yeah i dont get how you plan to do two giant turbos. I could understand a small one to reduce lag and a big one for more power...but it seems like two big ones would take an enormous time to spool. And I am not trying to flame your thread or say you cant do it. I am just putting in my 2 cents on what might be a better route.
