... just wondering abt lenght of intercooler hoses/pipes

i know that in ideal world both exhaust manifold and intercooler hoses (into Y joint) should be same length but what if each turbo goes seperated into intercooler (2in / 1out intercooler) ?? worried that may end up with front turbo hitting intercooler faster than rear one

would that effect any way ??

aslo if its not a problem, would change the way they are going, front one instead going up into Y join then down would stay at bottom where colder air is and rear one could go side of engine instead over the top of engine (if its shorter way to get to intercooler if not it would stay where it is)

The front turbo already hits faster than the rear one. It doesn't seem to bother most!

the way i see it the only bad thing which would happend is compressed air going back into rear turbo piping - but it could only happend if rear turbo didnt make any pressure - which wont happend with working rear turbo

so nothing to worry abt mate ??
