I was wondering what the movement of the exhaust thing is at 1:16 into this video?
Are those dual turbos on this???? Surely not....

it is exhaust cut-outs, it makes the exhaust loud for full throttle and quiet for cruising.

i've seen the show "Horsepower TV" where they've installed a twin-turbo set up on a newer corvette, and the turbos were located at the rear-end, it was quite the set-up

a company called STS (Squire Turbo Systems) basically piloted the remote mount turbo design for GM v8 applications. their original car was an LS1 camaro i believe that had a large single turbo just behind the rear axle.
i find it interesting that they claim theres no boost lag with that much "hot" pipe between the compressor and intake.
but all that aside, no, those are not turbos, just a controlled muffler that opens flow at WOT, similar to a muffler version of the 1.8L BP VICS instake system,1992 Festiva... BP-T, Escort G5MR, no crossmember, aspire brakes, Megasquirt, Toyota COP's, coilovers and 6 puck SPEC clutch!

you would lose high end torque if you were to disconnect it as it opens up a seperate set of runners in the intake manifold to help keep the torque curve flat past 3800 rpm
as for the festiva, 3800rpm is about where the the power kicks in at, thats just your regular ol motor
