not on our cars but in general with a twin turbo engine. What about one small turbo and a large turbo. The small to spool earlier then the large to kick in for the real boost? I had a few drinks after work and it seemed like a good idea when I was at dinner.

Default I wonder if the designers of previous sequential turbo setups also thought it up over drinks...
nice unoriginal idea.

Default you really need a inline straight 4 or 6 for sequential turbos, unless your dealing with a v10 or 12
so you can use 5-6 cylinders per turbo (smaller and 5-6 more for a larger on both sides..

i think lamborgini have a VTT diablo like that?
