Ok. Addo has sewn the seed in my head, and got me thinking on this possibility. Good thing too, since I was about to get started on collecting the tubing.
What was suggested, was to take up the Porsche flat six exhaust profile, of having a common header for 1,3,5 and 2,4,6 cylinders respectively, and installing a 45 trim T03 at the collector on each header group.
I'm thinking the main advantage of this setup is that it'll sound cool. I dont really think that the turbos will spool up faster, although I may be wrong on that, since three cylinders will exhaust into the turbo one after the other. Perhaps splitting up the intake manifold into two groups, and feeding the intake charge into the plenums (Plenii?) will be good for ram tuning.
Oh, and another thing, is there such a thing as a harmonic for a turbo exhaust header? What I'm getting at, is there a rough formula out there to calculate the optimum header length while under forced induction conditions, or should it be treated exactly as it is treated with naturally aspirated engines?
Thanks
