I looked online and didn't find anything. So do they make a set for a 302. I would appreciate any replies.

They do this on tractor pull diesels all the time.Its called staging or staged turbos.Its for ridiculous amounts of boost,probably more than a gas motor could safely use.Probably not much reason to stage turbos on a gas motor either.Not really neccessary when you could get adequate boost from a single or dual turbo setup.

Mazda rx-7's (mid 90's) all came with sequential turbos as well as some toyota supra's they run fine and perform very well. It would not be too much for an engine and if a straight six or a rotary engine can handle a sequential turbo set up I'm sure our small and big block v8's can handle it.

None taken or meant to be given.All im saying is its usually for 35 plus psi applications.These tractor pullers sometimes run like 200psi [Eek!]
in theyre setups.I just think it would be cheaper and easier to run a traditional single or twin turbo setup.

I believe a supra bottom ends are not quite your average 6 cylinder. I believee they have higher grand cranks and hardware almost like diesel components.

bottom line - you dont need sequential for any mustang application, unless you are entering a tractor pull

If you are serous about a turbo I think the best value/performance/quality/customer service would be to contact ponydown or b&g and look for a 70mm turbo. I have not heard one bad thing about either of the two.

I have never heard of any sequential turbo kits for a stang. You can get twin turbos and big single turbos. Both of these configurations will allow you to run lots of boost and lots of HP.

A blower setup would be a lot less money and a lot easier to install. However, there are companies like Hellion that make some bad ass bolt on turbo setups.

I got my hot parts from Ponydown. They are ok for the price.
