Its a nice strong pull. You should really go full exhaust with an ecu to really get the most out of it though.

Oh yeah, and if you don't like it it's totally reversable.

Can be unless you cut out the exhaust flapper and weld it to make it true parallel.

As for parallel it just means making it non-sequential, so both spool at the same time. It gets rid of all kinds of junk.

try it out a bit ... now

bring up to 3700 in 4th, about 70, ease in clutch and nudge revs up to 6K. Then start dropping rpms and release clutch before rpms drop below 3500, and floor it. This will be a parallel pull. Repeat by easing up to 3700, then flooring it for sequential.

I personally dont like non sequential but many people seem to enjoy it after theyve done it. It just makes the car a little less exciting and very predictable. Full boost 4200 for me every time. Now on this FD ive got a single turbo and the full boost rpm is similar but the power is incredible and its very exciting when the boost comes on.

i hate non sequential... mazda put two turbos on the car so that you dont have to deal with lag.

I've driven them all. Stock is ho-hum. Parallel is nice; Big single is better. Parallel and single free up a lot of power and certainly simplify things. I would never go back to seq.

Parallel is nicer than seq. in my opinion with the stock turbochargers because there is still not enough lag to even mention, yet a nice power increase.
Single is king though.
