right i know it wont give me more power ,just trying to have more of a top end power band
Ummm...hate to burst your bubble, but your not going to get more top end HP out of a non-sequential conversion. When the stock sequential system finally puts both turbo's online, it's the EXACT SAME THING as a non-sequential setup.

well i "thought" a nice powerband started with power at low rpm's and keeps good power til high rpms...... thats the only reason why i said that sequential might have a better powerband....... i never that seq. made more power....... plus you're not bursting any bubbles........ thats why i was asking if i was correct or not, cuz i wasnt really sure of the answer







another thing that i had a misconception with(i think) didnt ....... after the primary turbos help spool the secondary turbo...... doesnt the second turbo take care of the boost the rest of the way by itself?

Hands down, the sequential system has a better power band. People switch to non-sequential for various reasons, primarily reliability.



Basically, the front turbo spools, then a valve inside the crossover pipe stays closed until the pre-control solenoid opens it up and then they both spool at the same time.



I'm not sure exactly if your talking to me though...since I quoted etown and not you.

I have a question about non sequential setup. Those two solenoids for wastegate and pre-spool, Am i suppose to take the lines from the pre-spool solenoid and connect it to wastegate solenoid and plug up the lines that originally went to wastegat solenoid. Or just leave the wastegate solenoid connected and plug up the pre-spool solenoid lines?





thanks, sorry if i confused you guys

I forgot to say, I also have manual boost controllers (ball and spring type) installed in both wastegate and pre-spool.



Thanks

You'll only need to connect the wastegate to the boost controllers, so you can cap the lines going to the pre-spool.

if your using a manual boost controller, go ahead and cap both and disconnect both.
