I want it to purr like it does with standard exhaust, but gain some power.

will run them next to each other and ad a crossover later if it sounds crap.

Have a theory that the early turbo will create back pressure to the late turbo if the pipes are joined. Could be wrong, dont know too much about cars but would like to try it.

sb..

appart from the extra weight and difficulty in getting decent size pipe diameters to fit it is going to allow more head room for flow potentially.

As for sound? who cares. The sound of power is an easy one to get used to. It will sound different to a single if it makes more power then it sounds better in my opinion. For those hung up on sound why not get rid of the turbo and go NA with a set of extractors (thats where your logic will end up).

It will sound crap. There is no "if"

early turbo and late turbo? a RB26 isnt a sequentially turbo'd motor

Thanks for that, sounds like you saved me some greif, I allways thought they were identical turbos but someone recently told me they weren't. I thought they might be wrong cos i had never read anything like that.

cheers for the help!!

they are identical turbos mate, not sequentialy staged. Providing of course you own a GTR i suggest you run outside and have a look under the bonnet. or drive it. then tell us if you think it's sequential turbo or not.

oh yes! its a GTR, took it for a couple of hot laps around the block just to make sure, he he.

No i dont think they are sequential.

wish you could just throw one on to see what it sounds like.

I will have a twin exhaust on my RB26 in approx 6-8 weeks should chrissy not get too expensive

And this is from a person who has done this just a little more than once...

cross-over to balance it or it does sound... yuk!

originally you said a twin system would sound crap.now you are getting one but it will only sound good with a balance pipe.I guess then type/placement/diameter/brand of mufflers/resonators/cats etc is irrelevant : "they will all all sound crap"

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
