twin turbo ????????

[95 FIREBIRD]

i know it would hav to be really custom 2 twin turbo a 3.8 vs but iwas wonderin how much horsepower u could expect from it and what other components would i need to add or beef up .

[lord_gufi]

you could leave every thing stock but eventualy to expand you would have to change internals and such after around 8-10 psi because stuff wouldnt hold for extended amounts of time, on stocks i think we could see a max of 340hp but it wouldnt last long but thats a rough guestamate

ttt why cause its about turbos and not beta kits w00t

[jmorgan]

hrrmm lets call the first twin turbo kit Delta kit w00t


soo technicly speaking what would be a good delta kit


no pun inteaded you fawkers

actully i think with heads cam and a nicly set up turbo kit 350 hp reliable is posible and i dont think the motor would have to much problem as long as you can keep the a/f ratio 12:1

keep it nice and rich with no knock and i dont see a problem

man this sucks as soon as we are told we cant say a word that starts with the letter B the whole forced induction sections shuts down

common fawkers lets start some talk up about turbos like my good old thread form back in the day "Turbo talk" yes yes that was a very long thread [img]smile.gif[/img]

actually with our engines if u get the right turbo, a bigger turbo, pushing say 18 - 20 psi would be more benificial then 2 turbos each pushing 9-10 psi. this is because our RPM range would more benifit from the turbo taking more time to spool. because our lower rpms have a lot of power compared to when we creep up more. then also when u shift the turbo is spooled by 3rd gear and ready to hit ya like a brick. just my input from turbo experience

You would need two turbos each pushing 18-20 psig but at half the flow. If each turbo was pushing half that, you would still only have 9-10 psig boost. Simply physical laws. Try it, take two airlines each pushing 100psig of pressure and hook them up to a large tank or something, when you reach equilibrium, you will only have 100 psig in the tank, not 200.
