Not digging the tri-turbo concept...

If they wanted the staggered boost concept, wouldn't it have been easier to use a twin-scroll set up for the bottom 4 cylinders and a larger higher boost traditional turbo that kicks in about 3500 rpm and takes u to 7500-8000 rpm?

too many concerns here - overheating, robbing power off the crank, added weight, 3 intercoolers, another hpfp; very concerned about reliability, not to mention this is less efficient
