Someone needs to run them in series on a honda and not in parallel.

That reminded me of some dumb ass down here who did this awhile back. Usually its an ex-VW owner that gave up and realize how POS VW/Euro cars are. Jumps on the Honda bandwagan with stipud ideas like this and make Honda motors look bad! Dumb asses!

Actually Mazda engineers did this on a 3 cylinder called the 13B rotory motor that is in all 93-95 RX-7s.(Sarcasim so I don't get flamed for this) The whole point is to have two different sizes so that when the exhaust is light and pushing the small turbo you have power and then higher in the RPM range you begin to spin the larger turbo so you have higher turbo output through out the RPM range. Nice idea but IMHO single is still better if you're looking for high numbers on the dyno.
