Question turbo ?

I'm looking to in the future add a turbo charger to my 3.8 liter. Problem is I know nothing about this...I'd like to have dual turbo's the only problem is that I don't have dual exhaust would it be a wise idea to just dual stage it. thanks

you will be fine with a single turbo set up on such a small motor.......not bashing the motor size, just stating that a single would work best for your application.......between afm and turborides.com we can get you hooked up on a super turbo set up..........hotwheels

I don't know about best, but properly sized would work good. A twin setup would work well too as long as the turbos are properly matched. A twin turbo will spool up faster, but would be more expensive than a single.

I'm trying to talk my son into letting me twin turbo his 94 with a 3.8 V6. He just doesn't want it to be faster than his 90 5.0. I can't guarantee him that!
