seems very unnecessary.. though im a huge fan for twin turbos.... i dont think the rennie is twin turbo friendly.... single turbo is good enough for our 8's.
forgot to add, isnt the throttle body suppose to connect to something? or maybe this is some kind of new design...

It's obviously in the mock-up stages, but a twin turbo Renesis isn't nessasary right now, considering there are kits that make full boost before 3500 rpm and can generate over 400-rwhp on a single snail.
But I guess for blind factory twin snails looks good....

The guy who's workin on that car supposedly did the install for mine. This thing is also supposed to be ready before the auto show at BCplace in less than two months. I'm going by the shop tomorrow and if I see it, I'll see if I can get some pics

The point of twin turbo is that they go in max boost at different rpm ranges. 1 at some real low rpm like say 2,000+ and the other a bit higher at like say 4,500+. You also have to synchronize them properly to get the max benefit.
Right now the MazdaManic Greddy upgrade turbo is the one to beat. Go low end and can keep going to 8,000RPM.

Once we have a Renesis making upwards of what, 600 hp? Then we can talk about twin turbo (sequential or parallel).. At present they are just dead weight.. But it certainly looks nice..

i would have to say that its over kill. a single turbo provides more than enough boost to the renny if properly sized. and as far as i can see, those are the same size, so its not even a sequential twin turbo set up which would be nice, but like i said, its over kill. with the GT3071 from MM, you are perfectly set up for boost real early, and good through the rpm range. looks cool though.
