New Twin Scroll set-up vs. Older Twin Turbo

e30polak · 07-08-2010, 07:33 PM

I wanted to see how people would compare the drive-ability of the new twin scroll engine vs. the older twin turbo set-up?

It looks like the single turbo manifold will allow for an upgraded/larger turbo, is this true?

I'd love to see how a divded entry gt35r would perform on the n55 with the right tuning!

Sorry for the noobish questions. Just trying to see what my competition has to offer.

With a larger turbo, it doesn't matter if the manifold is made for single or twin. It has to be replaced to accomodate different flange.

A twin-scroll gt35r will work just as well on n54 as it will on n55. Why would there be any difference?
