it has just been proven time and time again that one, rather large single turbo is better for highest possible horse power.

so how is making it all fit working out? i really want to know what exactly your going to do... if that information is available to the public that is.
I was being sarcastic when I said it was stupid. Even though Supras don't use our V6, they still do the twin to single turbo conversion very successfully, which was the point I was trying to get across.

Space is tight, I am limited to running a 4" max, and I may not even be able to fit that. For race applications, you could just dump the exhaust right below the turbo, but I daily drive this and it will need to pass MA inspection.

Another concern with space is the fitting of the MAF and intake. I will have to run my intake and MAF towards the passenger side fog, which should be an issue.

If I ran a MAFless tune, I would just toss some chicken wire over the compressor inlet and call it a day.

Very interested in this setup, I'm currenty working on a custom setup with twin turbonetics GTK turbos, I think the main issue once you get past the fittment is finding a tuner to make software for you. Keep us up to date on the project and good luck.

i get the sarcasm but twin turbo on inline six much easier to do than on v-6.. not saying the rewards arent as great but .. id much rather have the task of setting up big turbo on inline than v... ton of piping..

Turbo is larger than I would have picked but sweet setup.
