changing turbo on rb30 to twins

[vlrb30]

hi was wondering if it would be possible to change from the single lagging turbo to twins but is was think if it was possible to mix a big turbo with a smaller one to try to minnimise the lag. thanks all info will be appriceated

you can do it like you said with one smaller turbo and one bigger...i think the rb26dett it set up liek that

[vlrb30]

thanks mate i didnt know if the bigger turbo would make the smaller bypass its limits at the hi revs with big boost causing premeture wear or damage or if itwas even posible

i thought rb26's had two t28's the same size.. i would like to see someone do it to know how it went. it can't be a bad idea.
and no i don't like your big red writing.. lol

What size turbo are you running?

[VL Berlina 5speed]

running two diffrent sized turbos is possibly, bmw have developed a new car which is twin turbo running two sizes, it was designed to have no lagg. it makes 300hp i think if i recal correct

i like lag gives me a chance to regain traction between gear changes lol

actually when you think about it, with a twin setup you don't need overly large turbo's so the lag wouldn't be as bad as a larger single setup anyway... just ahve to be choosy with your turbo selection

i am running a TRUST T88 its but takes heaps long to come into play

shortening your intercooling plumbing can make a big difference. getting an a/m plenum that faces foward straight to intercooler then to turbs gets rid of a lot of plumbing and also lag.....

No wonder your complaining about LAG. A 600kw turbo.

You must have a hell of alot of mods to be running this turbo!!
