Just wondering if anyone considers a twin turbo kit a 'dual power adder' since it is two turbo units?

I consider two different types of power adders on a car to be dual power adders. Twin turbo's is just two smaller versions of the same thing. Like the Hell raiser turbo+roots/twinscrew or blower/turbo + nitrous.

You might consider it a dual power adder car if the turbo's where sized differently and series with each other, similar to Fords 6.4 diesel setup. But equal sized twins in parallel like you're doing I consider a single power adder.

Even sequential turbo's like you talk about I wouldn't consider 2 seperate power adders. Actually that makes me wonder how well/bad a sequential setup would work on a 3v.

TT= single power adder

TT + blower, or Turbo feeding into another turbo= compound boost

TT+n20= dual

TT+Twinscrew+nitrous= suicide

Been talking to nitrous guys again? Only a nitrous racer considers twin turbos as "dual power adders." :clap::clap:


Remember.....turbo lag was created to give nitrous cars a chance. :roflmao:

it's like saying does a two stage n20 set up mean dual powr adders?

Now if you had twins feeding a roots/twin screw, with shot of meth, then a spray bar on the air to intercooler to cool that down.... that would be suicide...

I have a question. Is a TT setup an advantage over a single turbo? If yes then I think it is 2 adders, if no then it is not. Just like I think two stages of nitrous is two adders. And a twin screw and a single nitrous shot is two adders. IMHO
