01-04-2018, 06:18 AM #251completely random q but is there any benefit in going with 2 smaller twins something like a GT2035 over a larger single? Always wondered this on the mkiv supra's as you see very few with upgraded twins, maybe due to cost involved or is it more of a mechanical/tuning issue?

I know Mines R34 Time attack car has two GT2035's and the "claim" that it gives better response which to a point I can understand however I think the twin-tubbies work differently on the RB26.I know with the 2JZ-GTE the twins spool 1 after the other as opposed to both at the same time, is this a similar thing on the 1G-GTE?

Ah the 2JZ system sequential sytem, very complex, and VERY prone to breaking.
It works using liitle air valves and signals from the ECU
The 1GGTE is just a simple parallel spool system, both turbos all the time.

probably explains why most go for a single over 2 twins on the supra, think i've seen a couple with big twins but they are serious show cars

Sparkystav the engine, from what ive read is fairly capable at that power so rebuild shouldnt (touch wood) be needed.
Should only start to become a problem once you approach 500bhp on those engines, I think ? Is that about right ?

yea thats about right, but the turbo lagg is huge at that power from what I have read? Stav will however know what's what I am sure:p

01-04-2018, 01:23 PM #260Personally I would go for a set up thats plenty of power just before the dreaded lag takes an unreasonable hit on the driving pleasure.
