bolsen, he isn't talking intake side. Higher pressure at the exhaust port one one cyl than another will reverse flow of gasses at the lower pressue cyl.. it gets pushed in not pulled.

Because they haven't taken the time and money to make a twin scroll turbine housing for their turbo setups. The twin scroll will spool faster and make full boost faster than a single scroll EVERY TIME.

I will be installing it this weekened and will let you know how it goes. At first i will be running the MAF until i can get George up here to tune the AEM and convert to Speed density which should be in 2 weeks. So i will let you know both ways how it goes. You might have yours done before me so if you do PM me with your mods and the outcome.
Thanx

The equal length manifold will act as a pulse, as the twin scroll is designed to do, from what I've heard. So maybe that's why neither is worse nor better because they are the same.
Technology or not, old vs new, airflow is airflow.

The twin scroll manifold and turbine housing separate the pulses so they do not interfere with one another, strengthening the kinetic and thermal energy from which the turbine extracts work. An ideal exhaust setup would have nice long, equal length runners with a twin scroll, inverted cone merge collector mated to a twin scroll housing much like on the OEM turbo.
FYI I don't know the answers to it all, that's why I'm trying to learn

thanks
thanks
The RNR one is old T3 style
the AMS one is old T3 style
The Buschur one old T3 style
Thats about all that im sure of. I ended up getting the ATP kit then got a twin scroll tubular manifold to go with it.
