twin scroll turbo, but not manifold

Hey, I was wondering the effects of using a normal turbo manfiold that is not split with a twin scroll turbo?

I have a fc t2, but my manifold is not split. I know I wont get the effects of a twin scroll setup, but what about my flow? ANything good or bad about this?

You would lose a little bit of efficiency because of the slight exhaust restriction the divider wall has on the flow. It is not a large loss though, I wouldn't lose sleep over it.

Thanks, well said. Only if it was easyier to make a twin scroll manifold. Those rounded off rectangel patternis hard to match. I think I remember my friends subaru twin scroll having 2 circle entries. That would b easy to make a manifold for, especially since our exhaust ports are pretty much circles too
