if you pull this off, youll be running so high hp, I mean, it would be around 300, right? and that is all a RX-7 ned in my oppinion...things are quick-BRUM!! haha, but yea you'll burn everything in your local street-gangs =P

The problem with running a valve that closes off one turbo on the low end is that there is no way to get it spinning up to speed when the valve opens. This would cause a pretty severe problem when it came online as it would take time to get moving while the other turbo slowed down. You'd lose boost at the transition point. This was one reason why the 3rd gen system is so complicated. It has a pre-spin mode where some air is diverted to get the second turbo spinning. If you really want to try this system with 2 single turbos, just copy the way the 3rd gen system works as far as valves and vacuum lines goes. I bet you'll get frustrated long before you get it working though. You're my hero if you do make it work good though.

IMO, I think this is a crazy amibitious idea. The stock FC turbos are much too large for a twin turbo setup. You'll need the custom manifold and on top of that, think of the positioning of the downpipe. I don't want to think about it.
It would probably be much cheaper and FAR less hassle to just order the twin turbo setup from Knights Sports. I believe its around $3500-4000.

To be honest I know next to nothing about turbos, so I'll ask, rather than suggest, what would happen if you were to use that custom twin turbo manifold, but have one turbo bigger than the other? Would this somehow allow the smaller turbo to spool faster (I'm assuming here), then later on spool up the larger? Like I said I know next to nothing about turbos.

He should give up on sequential. Think simultaneous...

That is what the FD has, if I'm not mistaken. The first turbo spools really quickly too.

The single biggest problem with that is going to be controlling it. The FD uses four separate vacuum solenoid-controlled valves to control the sequential operation (plus another for wastegate control) based on load and revs, and there's simply no aftermarket ECU that's going to be able to do that.

Yeah i don'tr think you'll be running the stock ecu on this so ditching the AMF is no problem so i wouldn't even think about using it when you can use a MAP sensor
