twin turbo
Paired forced induction
Twin turbo describes an engine fitted with two turbochargers rather than one, typically providing more power and faster response across a wider range of engine speeds.
The turbochargers may work in parallel (both feeding the engine simultaneously) or sequentially (one at low RPM, both at higher RPM).
The twin turbo V6 puts out 400 horsepower.
