ORIGINAL: Redgoat

well if you are talking about referring to it as sequential turbos.. then you would have to refer to the other setup as parallel twin turbo setup

yes...

bi turbo = twin...

but parallel vs sequential

so back to the original question.. LMFAO.. damn what was the question??


Is it wrong to refer to the 2.7T as twin turbo? Should i be corrected by a salesman on that??

i dont think it matters. i think audi calls it a bi-turbo becuase its shorter then twin-turbo so if they write that on the side of the car its shorter and there for cheeper to call it bi

the turbos are the same size, bi just means two, so its just twin turbo but the turbo housing is the same but the outlets are diffrent on the KO3/K04s

the turbos have different outlets

how are u gonna run a single turbo on a V6, the manifold is gonna be crazy
if the 2.7TT was a inline 6 then it would be perfect for a huge single turbo
