twin turbos or single

It really depends on what u are looking for! Twins have a lot less spool time especially with the stock sequential. The beauty of that system is you use the rear turbo which is smaller up to a certain point and then the front bigger one kicks in for higher HP at high rpm with out "falling off" which for a daily driver that is a wicked setup. And they are quite durable compared to other stock turbos.

How much boost you looking to run?

A way to common mistake people make is over size there turbo and end up loosing HP they could be getting sooner due to added lag.

I personally like twins! But as u can see in my Sig on my 1j I'm running a 60-1 single. That is because 1j stock turbos are crap. And mostly cuz i drag race with the car. Also let's face it turbos are far from cheap. And if you only have to buy 1 as oppose to 2 well you get the idea
