6 is better

Hi .

what is it of the better surge tank (plenum) Intake manifold )) for the big single turbo 76 mm (ITS) ?

OR 6 throttle body better or single throttle body for big single turbo to RB26 DETT & better CFM ?

GREDDY,, JUN etc .. any mark ?

((((6 is better ? why? ))))

Thanks .

this is getting difficult to understand.

6 throttle bodies (or in your case surge tank/plenum) is better for response. standard RB plenums are supposedly quite good standard

lol :thumbsup:

this is good .

and if not it RB26DETT standard engine( strokerkit 2.8 HKS) with big single turbo 76mm ???

single throttle body or 6 throttle ? and why ?

thanks every body ....

with 6, pressure builds up in the plenum and is evenly distributed into cylinders when valves open. with a single, when the valve opens up it has to fill the plenum first and equalize pressure along all six inlets. with big turbo applications this is not really a problem because of the high pressure the turbo is pumping out. but for a more mild setup, or most setups, having a single throttle will mean less response. overall the reasoning behind using a single is to reduce turbulence and it would most definentally flow better for high hp apps.

youll notice most single throttle body applications have a huge ass turbo sitting on the other side of the engine. usually a 1000hp thing imo.
