Twin Turbo

When the twin turbo option arrives, will I be able to choose 2 different size turbos for a wide range use engine like real life?

Re: Twin Turbo

As of now, you can put twin turbos on V8s. And no, it is not likely that you will be able to make them 2 different sizes.

Re: Twin Turbo

That said, the turbo model is known to be based on 80s tech and should be undergoing some overhaul!

Re: Twin Turbo

That'd be sequential twin turbo, that'll hopefully come later on (at some point)

Re: Twin Turbo

Are there any plans to put twin turbos on single bank engines?

Even two turbos on an i4 for example, 1 per 2 cylinders?

Is this ever done in real life, probably not in production I would imagine.

Re: Twin Turbo

Yes, and yes it does happen in real life.

Re: Twin Turbo

The Lotus Omega has an inline 6 with two twin-turbo's.

The Opel Insignia has two different size turbo's on a inline 4 diesel engine which each have a different effect on the total powerband. And there are probarly more examples to be mentioned in even mainstream mass produced cars that apply different size turbo's.

So I guess it would be interesting to play with two or more turbo engine designs?
