This is probably better asked in the FI section, but I don't know much about FI & don't want to get flamed if it's a stupid question.

The Boosted Performance kit is the one that is single turbo, mid-mounted. The price is about $4500 vs. many TT kits in excess of $7500. I was curious as to the application of a sequential turbo setup using BP's config (a smaller turbo feeding into a larger turbo).

Would the other components in the kit need to be upgraded as well, or are would they be sufficient to handle the sequential set up? The goal of this setup would ideally be to minimize or eliminate turbo lag, have a lot of low end torque, and stay cheaper than a typical TT setup (Greddy, JWT, etc).

Are there any drawbacks to this? Is it possible? Anything else I should know regarding this idea?


Thanks for all the answers

 

are you 5at or 6mt? there are MANY different things to look at when choosing the FI kit that is best for you.

rule #1- do it right or do it twice. the cheapest way may not always be the most reliable/etc.

rule #2- read rule 1.

rule #3- DO YOUR HOMEWORK

 

6MT. & this is all theoretical right now

 

if i were you, and you really wanted a ST, go with powerlab

 

Somehow I am getting the impression that you have yet to read the first post

 

i read it, but im trying to figure out what you are trying to accomplish.. the first thing that caught my eye and that concerns me is the cost comparison that you provided.

injectors, fuel pump would be needed. you are going to have significantly more turbo lag than other kids due to location.

sorry you took my posts the wrong way

 

I'm trying to figure out what the cons are to turning the BP setup from a single Turbo setup to a sequential Turbo setup.

The first and most glaring issue is whether or not it's possible due to space constraints.

I also think it would cost less than the typical TT setups on the market, but I could be very wrong. If the BP kit is capable of handling a sequential setup with minimal upgrading of parts, it seems like it would be possible to get one for less than the common TT kits on the market. Again, I could be wrong.

I realize that the location is not under the hood, so there will be more turbo lag when compared to under the hood set ups, but I assumed (possibly incorrectly) that the lag difference would be minimal. I wanted to do a small turbo feeding into a bigger turbo to minimize lag, and have lots of on-hand torque.

Let me reiterate, my knowledge of FI is limited, so I may be very off base with all of my ideas.

 

i looked into the STS kit. have you read threads on that? similar info could be found

 

Nope, but have not seen any

 

 

Thats a m3.

 

To be honest, if you wanted a sequencial kit you would be the first to put it off in the g35 community that I know of. The lack of room is the biggest reason. Also you would need a lot more than what is in the bp kit. Honestly you would toss and have to modifiy just about every piece. Most kits the lag not bad at all, especially a turbo that would be paired with a stock block fi application.

 

no its not...

 

That's surprising (in bold). Are there any technical challenges besides space?

 

Yes to say the least, to get it to function correctly.

Here are some pics of sp's setup for the 2jz
