Default My Idea For A Twins Setup On A 7.3


what do you guys think, i thought about staging them but i dont see why this wouldnt work......i drew them out so i didnt have to explain it, it works on gassers, i dont know why it wouldnt on diesels. i would flip the manifolds forward so the turbos are at the front of the engine.

sure it'll work.
compounds are more efficient.. unless you compounded form the twins... that would be awesome!

also you don't have to mount the turbo to the manifold.. any where on the exhaust will work. you can mount them on the bottom of stacks in yer bed if you wanted..
help conserve space in the engine bay

Can you imagine the tuning it would take to get that right.

you could probably put 4 turbo's on a cummins if you had a custom manifold..

i always thought that would be interesting.

Not enough fuel to keep them spooled was my guess. That is alot of demand. I think to make it work the chargers would have to be so small that twins would out do them.
