Ok so I'm stupid a glutton for punishment but I moked it up for ***** ang giggles with left over PVC parts sorry no pics but here's what I'm thinking 3 turbos but tiny ones so I'm sure this will be a tuning nightmare but 3 1 in to 2 intake manifolds all connected with a 1/ 4 In tube to balance and 3 2 into 1 exhaust headers very short all 1 in stainless 1 turbo per 2 cylinder 21 mm turbos draw through set up 70 lbs valve spring for high rpm 3 Rochester one barrel crabs and a 3 in striat pipe all the way out the exhaust I'm not trying to make massive power just wanna be different any I figure this will take about a year to do so if you've read this far I'd love suggestions I'll try to take lots of pics and will save all measurements this is in my 64 dart orignal 270 4door 4speed /6 its good a ford 8 in out of a mustang as well as mustang 2 front disk brakes
 
Would be interesting to see what 2 cylinders would draw through that 22mm turbo. You gonna match up the ports that are 360 degrees apart? 1-6, 5-2, 3-4? Sounds like a very heavy setup.
 
You'll need a lot more than 70 pounds of spring pressure, I can tell you that.

Not really heavy I think with turbos and carbs it should be almost exactly the same as stock parts those small turbos weigh nothing and thin wall stainless
 
I did think of port match but be cause of complications I was going to run a balance tube between the intakes so that they all will see the exact same pressure
 
I think a common exhaust plenum feeding the 3 turbos would be the way to do it. Im not sure how the hot sides would like a rather slow individual pulsing exhaust. I have no experience with a single cylinder turbo setup, maybe is not an issue (probably not per video!) . can you fit them all in the length of the head? They would have to be very small to keep the velocity up but IR's would allow them to be pretty snappy boosting. These guys got 3 lbs out of 4 turbos....with lots of leaking exhaust..
 
I can fit them no problem I put a turbo on my ATV 300. Cc 1 cylinder and it boost with a 15 mm turbo at 2500 rpm - 4500 rpm between 5 and 18 psi si don't think that will be an issue but we will see it's not gonna cost me a whole bunch cuz I have access to a full fab shop with a 4th access CNC plasma table tubing benders tig welders and other odds and ends lathe/mill so make king the parts no problem the thing I'm worried about this keeping oil flowing through the turbos I have a constant 50 psi of pressure but I'm wondering if it's best to daisy chain oil to them or individually feeding them
 
if you daisy chain them youll feed the 2nd with potentially frothed oil, run a 3 port manifold and feed each its own. Just jet each oil feed to provide the minimum the turbo needs so you dont bleed off all your engines oil pressure. Holset HX40 required 2l per minute. and 10 psi min. just for published data sake. Not sure what a muh smaller cartridge 22mm would take. Where you at in CA?
