compound turbos
a sequential is in series but with bypass valves which would add even more to the system. I would like to do the compound setup which would put the 518 as the high pressure and a larger turbo maybe a 35r with a 1.01 or similar for the lower pressure but I first have to size it right, that is why I asked for help in sizing it. also I think that if you use a 60mm wastegate for the smaller turbo and 44 for larger, than that should be good.
Ah I see. The small turbo is driven off the engine which then feeds into a larger turbo. I still don't think this would be beneficial at all. Not of a 4 cylinder anyway and with the s2k's limited space. A properly sized single will spool just fine and make all the power you need.

Not sequential, compound. One turbo compressor output actually flows into the inlet of a second turbo compressor. They are not parallel but more so in series.
So you can get a 600-700whp turbo to start spooling at 2500rpm? I'd love to see that power curve out of one turbo.
compound turbo's are nice I gained 120 hp just switching from the single to the compound setup it also helped with compressor surge and egt's you would have to butcher the sh*t out of the battery area just sayin it was hard to fit two in a truck bay though there are triple turbo setups now it banana's 100+ psi I had to replace my head gasket and install h11 head studs that are torqued to 150 lbs and I only run 60 psi

[/quote]Thats one way to look at it. I just don't think the benefits will out weigh the amount of work needed to fit this set up in a S. But for what its worth, this may have beneficial information to what you're looking for OP.

a 30r on this motor has been proven time and time again to make incredible power (600whp) and have amazing spool characteristics.
Just b/c you "can" do something, doesn't mean you always should. Anytime you add more complexity to a system, you add more points of failure, K.I.S.S. is a great motto to live by.
