Message 5.7 / 2 = 2.85 litres per bank of potential exhaust energy.
3.0 / 2 = 1.50 litres per bank of potential exhaust energy.

a standard 5.7 litre engine is 1.487 times more efficient* at delivering exhaust engergy to a turbine wheel.
In summary, a Z32 stock turbo would be useless and providing suitable boost above roughly 3krpm.

(* "more efficient" may be misinformation, but it's all i could think of. you get the idea.)
