another way to plumb twin turbos

Bolting on primary turbo onto exhaust manifold, and slapping on secondary after that, does not initially spring to mind when thinking about exhaust side plumbing on twins.

This is however what Borg Warner has done on International VT275 engines.

I think this would make cold side plumbing more straight forward in the already crowded Dodge Ram engine bay.

I guess there is a shortage on 6BT manifolds that accept B2/S400..

Whaddya think?

If you look in that second picture that is how that setup seems to be, big charger on top, little on bottom. I wonder if there would be any actual benefit in doing it like this??? Also I wish I could buy that pump... lol.

It's not really a different routing that I can see, it's just eliminated the hot pipe, and coupled the inlet of the second hot turbine to the outlet of the first.

A good way to cut heat loss, imo.
