Thinking of a Turbo set up
I was looking at my new car, and I was thinking about a setup. I was thinking that I could get rid of the hose that goes into the turbo and replace it with a hose that has about 5 cone filters on it. and then after the turbo, I could add a few more cone filters, and then put about 3 on the intercooler. This would supply a lot of air to the engine, so wouldn't it be a good plan?
On a side note, I was thinking about getting a true dual exhaust setup. I've heard good things about them and was just wondering what everyone thought?

I was thinking about having one side of the exhaust going in one end of the turbo, and the other end going out the other. People said that backpressure gives low end torque so that should give me plenty.

from what I've heard the twin scroll OEM single turbo setup is the best with low end torque. Stepping up to a twin turbo setup is the next best thing and a supercharger is the best with flattening/improving the entire powerband.
