sequential turbo Setup?

[Odog87]

Anybody running or know of anybody running a sequential turbo setup in a GN/TR? Im out here in japan and I met a guy building a rx7 with this setup so Im curious if anyone has researched this in the past or has any feedback?

Turbofabricator on this board had a twin turbo setup that mimicked the Sequential in how it looked but that's about as much as you'll see around here on this topic.

I've never seen or heard of one. Would be quite costly to build.

I orginally considered running sequential turbos, but after trying to engineer a way to actually shut one turbo down and seal both intake tract and exhaust tract, it just wouldn't pan out. Most sequential systems use a primary larger unit feeding a smaller unit, though some systems do opposite. There is alot of info about how to do it on turboforums.com but with the roller bearing billet wheel turbos out there, WHY? In theory it makes alot of sense, but practically a well designed single system is alot more simple. I can make alot more power on a single turbo, but it would look just like every other Turbo Regal out there. I like doing things different. Ever go to a car show and see all the 350 crate engines inside the engine compartment of just about EVERY kind of hot rod there is? Not my way of doing things. The more tubing........the better. And yes......the spark plugs are still easy to change.
