your liberal use of "restricting" plates, as trinity noted and all these weird flow paths... some at 90 degrees to flow kind of sounds like one restriction after another.1. Will this sequential setup add weight? 2. Will this sequential setup add complexity? (ie, increase boost leak potential) 3. Will this sequential setup create wierd pressures on the turbo(s) that could cause damage? 4. Will this sequential setup create inbalanced pressures to the cylinder banks? 5. Will this sequential setup create an additional cost in fabricating a custom exhaust? 6. Will this sequential setup create an additional heat load on one intercooler versus equal heat load on both? 7. Will this sequential setup create an additional heat load to the water cooling system? 8. How do you plan to control boost? Will this require extensive rework to dial in pressures? 9. What is the intended realistic benefit? 10. What is the intended realestic power or torque gains? Will the cost be similar to that of a well designed parallel setup (ie, turbos, manifolds, downpipes?) And I think every sequential turbo car (RX7s) convert to parallel. They most know something about that...
If you want to go nuts and be unique/baller, look into Turbo Compounding instead. If you can pull that off, I will marry you. Discuss.
