sequential twin turbo idea
got a idea to pass by everyone. tell me why it wouldn't work.
i had a t76 on my 408 and it spooled instantly. steped up to the pt88 and it had significant lag. my next step will be someting in the twin t72 range. i expect that to be more laggy than the pt88. i could go with a trans brake or maybe a 2 step(not sure if that works on an auto) but i dont want a race car. i want a quick spooling set up for everyday driving. so... my idea i think would give quick spool when you punch it with the full potential of the t72's up top.
2 log headers conected to the turbos, out the back of the logs have a 2.5" cross over tube that conects one log to the other. put the waste gate on that cross over.
out the exhaust side of each turbo have a 3" down pipe. have a block off on one of the down pipes. it could be a high quality cut out style block off or maybe a pair of 50mm waste gates. then on the intake tract you would have the turbo on that side of the motor have a one way flaper valve that would block air if it tried to feed back into the turbo from the other turbo and once the presure was up high enough it would let the air from both turbos into the motor.
the idea is when the truck is under lets say 10psi no exhaust would flow thru the one turbo. because the down pipe is blocked off all of the exhaust would be forced into the one turbo. it would spool fast. once it was up to a preset psi the block off in the down pipe would open and the 2nd turbo would spool up. it should spool up real fast since the motor is all up to speed and making 600+hp allready. the intake tube on that one turbo would need to have a one way flapper on it so when it wasn't pumping the air from the other turbo wouldn't push it's way out thru that turbo.
you could have the block off gate open fast(waste gates) or open slow(like the sliding gate). you could also not have it close 100% so it would be pre spooled a little.
check out my crude drawing, my woman says it looks like a *****.

This thought has crossed my mind quite a few times.. I dont see why it wouldnt work. How exactly does it work in the Supras or the RX7s?
Do you have any experience with the sequential setups in those two cars?

unless i am missing something i think my idea would be really fast spooling AND capable of 1400+rwhp
