It's not sequential.
It's a compound turbo setup, normally found on diesels.

Would of been impressive if they got it running right...

Wow! What the heck is that turbo anyways?

I've commented a few times over the past years and nobody responds. For the sequential turbos. How effective would a twin turbo set-up be on a 4-cylinder? Say you wanted a GT28/30 up front under the hood, and ran a rear-mounted GT40...

Where is the results/final write up of the Castrol challenge? I can only find the first part of it.

sorry but you couldn't dream of actually completing that and making it work in the amount of time they had.... if you read the article they ran out of time to get it tuned so they had to go to a single setup.... sorry but i am personal friends with 3 guys at AMS and they are no joke... you could only wish and hope to someday be as knowledgeable as they are......

Aren't VATN turbochargers in production?

They should have just grabbed one of those and called it a day..

dont they do something similar with those tractor pulling engines ? ending up running huge psi at the inlet

from me for ams, eric answered my question i asked a while ago that was never going to result in a sale and the cars they build are awesome.
