Did anyone ever tried twin turbo? I remember seeing a car ( meecedes ich) once in Germany that had a smaller and bigger turbo spooling next to each other.

you can do anything if you set your mind to it...
i rather blow it up winning than keep it together losing.

finish date set for project 1... march 2018

Leyland, Lancs

Mercedes use a twin turbo setup on their 4 cylinder diesels - it's an odd unit though, it's basically 1 turbine housing, with 2 turbines and 2 compressor housings:

It's not overly easy to see in the picture, but it's quite a large unit

not on a mini, tbh theres little point due to space constraints,

somthing that has been done is compound charging with a turbo and supercharger, and there are a cpuple of apeals to this,

If you go turbo > chager > engine you can use the charger to spoole a big turbo, which then blows through th charger making it seem bigger than it is, you have to be carefull with yor boost though as it dosent just add together so you can end up with a lot of boost quickly.

Ive often thoughti it would be interesting to get a Bini S and stuff a gt30 down the back and see what happens,

Or just stick a GT17 on. Plenty of boost built from low revs. Perfec.

Dave, nothing much. Mainly done some improvements to my Minor (more power... ) and actually restored a pile of rusty Mini pickup parts into a complete car. I tried to attach a couple of pics but donīt know if it works... I have visited the forum every now and then but have not really had anything useful to contribute.

My turbo is still running but havenīt driven so much in the past years. A 300 hp Minor is much more fun *smiley*

And yes, my mateīs Clubman is packing more than that under the bonnet.
