twin turbo?

I just bought a greddy turbo kit for my rx8. I have already put other mods into it, but i was just wondering if it is possible to make it a twin turbo?

it's possible, but then you'd have two crappy turbos, instead of one. Why would you want your car twice as bad?

daveyboy, welcome to the forums.

1) Search around for fixes to the greddy kit. The Greddy is not the greatest turbo out there and there are a few things you should do before trying to push lots of HP. (Mazdamaniac has a sticky thread on it I believe)

2) Twin Turbo setups aren't all that great. Keep in mind that MANY 3rd Gen RX-7 guys ditched the T.T. and went with 1 larger turbo.

3) what engine management are you running with the greddy?

Why would you want a "twin turbo" set up? For looks and bragging rights? If you do a search on "twin turbo", you will see why you shouldn't even consider it.
