    Rb26 triple turbo

    I know this has been done before probably down-under, but I was thinking why not use three stock size turbos or N1s
    instead of two bigger ones or one really big one?? One would think it would be quite responsive and with a straight
    6 the plumbing wouldn't be all that difficult. Don't get me wrong I am not going to do this anytime soon but I think it
    would be cool and different. Does anyone know of a car like this or seen this setup somewhere on an RB? Just thinking out loud.

    What's the general purpose or desired gain from three turbos that you couldn't gain off a properly set up/tuned single?
    Because race car.

    He must be one of the "more turbos, more response" guys.

    Also, if you look at the firing order of the rb26 (153624) you will see it won't work like you think it will.

    I know that video but didn't know that car had three Turbos.

    In other news apparently BMW will likely soon be releasing triple Turbo inline six's but one of the turbos is electric powered, interesting.
