Re: VQ35DET

what does the VQ35DE"T" have that ours doesn't? (other than the T)... does it stand for Turbo?

Re: VQ35DET

Does it even exist?! The VQ35DE is a V6 engine...where will this one turbo be placed? Under the car? LOL.

why would you use a single turbo in a V-type engine

I've taken a look at the VQ35DET manifolds. From what I see, the USDM steering linkage most likely gets in the way. Also the Gloria/Cedric seem to have more room down where this turbo is placed. Also in Japan, the steering is on the other side, providing more room for the turbo

a single turbo would be a waste of money its only like 1200 more to get a twin setup

Why are twin necessarily "better" than a single?

it will provide more power at a slighlty higher RPM. for example a single turbo car running lets say 200hp more than stock would lose in a 1/4 mile to a twin turbo car running 200hp more than stock because the power is spread more evenly through the rev range instead of the surge of one turbo

You can't really say that. As you haven't stated the turbos used in each application. Use too big of turbos on a TT application and you will have lag. As only 3 cylinders are powering each turbo.

You can have a small single (powered by all 6 cylinders) and have GREAT throttle response and midrange punch. Or you can put a med/big turbo and get high end power w/ some low end lag. Or you spend mega dollars and use a ball bearing center sectioned single turbo and get it all. Low/mid/high w/ little lag.

What you say below is true to a point. But if the 1/4 is the only consideration then you also have to account for tranny. Use an auto tranny for the quarter and they can brake boost and launch while already in + psi. aka no lag

You're arguing in a thread that was dead for over three years? I'm sure your intended audience isn't around anymore.
