Default Help me out here.

Can you have a turbo setup with individual throttle bodies.

Also please explain why it would or would not work and how you could make it work.


To prove my cousin is a fucking moron he is telling me that this sentence above this one needs a question mark at the end. Does it?

Sure, Nissan did it with not one but two turbos on the Rb26 for years.

If you use a plenum or something to enclose the ITB's,then yes.

That is exactly what I was looking for. He doesn't understand that without the ITB's being in a sealed box he would have no boost. Thank you TR for helping me prove my cousin is a fucking moron.

Also can someone answer if this would need a question mark or a period "Please explain why it would or would not work." We argued about that for fucking 4 hours and my other roomate woke up and we asked him and he said a question mark (same as my cousin) but he also spells my fucking name wrong. Then we called our boy Kris which is a smart guy, but he also said it needed a question mark. I'm originally from West Virfuckinginia and I know "Please explain why this would or would not work." is not a fucking question. I'm just a small town country boy, but from what I can see the Florida education has fallen on its fucking face if all three of them think that is a question.

So why are you arguing with an idiot? Let him go back to watching Spongebob and get on with your life.

Exactly. Thats what he was saying would work. I tried to explain to him how it would HAVE to be setup to work (with an inclosed setup like stated before) but he keeps saying "no you could have ITB's and a turbo setup and it wouldn't be sealed because it's a wind curtin". This is the shit I have to put up with all day .

He needs to go to Turbo 101 holy shit!!


Oh and no it does NOT need a question mark because you are not asking a question. You are making a statement. The "please" at the start of the sentence makes it polite...but not a question!

however, if you were asking if someone could explain it, in a question form, then it would need a question mark.

If you would have "asked" Please will someone explain why.... then it would have needed a question mark.
