    Default Twin Turbo VL

    How hard and how expensive is it to Twin Turbo a VL stock RB30, or convert to another twin turbo engine, and would it be reliable, or wouldnt it last.
    Rough Estimate Price. Just wondering.

    Cheers boys

    depends what u want it for, ud need custom manifolds ect.. to suit the rb30, you could probably use rb25/26 head on the rb30 block and use the standard rb26 turbo manifolds and turbos.

    its possible but not really worth it

    why 2 turbos? its all wank factor,
    you will only achive the same power but it will cost twice as much

    if you want to swap to a twin turbo motor then look at the 2jz,

    nor worth it unless you want a show car, 2 small turbos are sometimes used to reduce turbo lag as they spool up quicker
