I can't figure out why car manufacturers use multiple smalls over one big. Ever seen a 3000gt vr4? Omg that pipe routing. That engine bay is a jungle. Or the eco boost f150. More than enough room for a single, which would keep costs down. But maybe it's cause of exhaust cracks, that's why they place them right at the head.

Multiple Turbos of different sizes spool at different speeds, they are just there to try and minimize turbo lag.Originally posted by bhearts View PostI can't figure out why car manufacturers use multiple smalls over one big.

You could probably buy like 20 rust free Festivas for what that engine would cost. lol1991 Ford Festiva BP (Full Aspire/Rio Swap) (337k Miles) (Around 95k Engine)
2002 Chevy Cavalier LS Sport 2.2L DOHC Ecotec (Threw a Rod)
1998 Chevy Monte Carlo LS 3.1 V6 (225k miles) Best MPG = 28
