Which One?

Which Supra is faster or has more potential? A Single Turbo or a Twin Turbo.

that depends on the size, how much boost each can handle,.....
TT tends to be faster because they are later model 93-98....single turbo or 86.5-92 is heavier and has and i think better torque but worse HP.....as well stock TT has better suspension, tranny, clutch, engine build, etc....i prefer MKIII single turbo....i love my baby i put on a diet

well if you are talkin about a single turbo or twin turbo 2jz...then i would say a single turbo has more potential and more power can be made through those...though upgrading the twin turbos would also give you a nice boost in power...it depends...i know that twin turbos are preferred if its gonna be a circuit car because the engagement of the boost is a little more smoother rather than a kick from a single turbo...

The sequential turbo setup in the MkIV's can be improved and make over 1000hp, but the main reason for going to a single turbo is....COST. One turbo is far cheaper than two turbos, and it's harder to fit two huge turbos instead of one under the hood. Look at suprastore.com in their videos section...

Are all MKIV turbos twin turbos?
I'm getting a 95 turbo and I'm not sure if that's twin turbo.

Twin or they don't have a turbo at all. But the single turbo is a popular aftermarket thing, so you find em quite a bit too...
