Not with the right rims and tires. Have you ever tried MT drag slicks?

hey just read the thread, im new here and don't know if its too late but is it possible to put the two stock turbos from a 2jz-gte onto a n/a engine, as i have just bought a 94 supra and it would be good if i could do that. So is it possible and what kind of work would need to be done?

Nope, the manifold the oem twins mount on doesn't fit the 2jz-ge head. In theory I guess it's possible with a ton of custom fab work (weeks and weeks, and thousands of dollars - really!), but it definitely isn't practical.

Your only practical options are:
1) Sell your n/a and get a true Mkiv TT (this is by far your best option, since you get all the braking power, suspension, and bulletproof drivetrain of the TT - not just the turbos).
2) Put a complete n/a-T kit on your n/a (which upgrades your turbos, your fuel system, head gasket, head studs, and your ignition). After that, you'll have to figure out how to upgrade your braking system (calipers&rotors, bmc, abs system, etc), suspension, transmission and and differential...when all priced out with labor will cost you more than the difference between a used TT and a used n/a.

In my opinion singe turbo is cheaper and if you go full out makes a good drag motor, twins are more expensive and more suited for like auto cross and street

well i already got an N/A and it was a lot cheaper then a TT, I want to get around 500/550hp out of the engine. What would need to be done and how much do you guys think it would cost. And have any of you done this with your car, what size turbo are you using, how much power , how much did it cost you?

What do you think of the na-T kit I linked to in my post above?

What are you planning to do with that 550hp? Drag race? Road race? Autocross? Drifting? Top speed? Highway races from a roll? ...just curious.

Do you mean sequential twins, or parallel twins?

I think sequential is more practical for like road racing auto cross and street, a parallel system is for like highway rolling starts and drag

You have been misinformed - the oem twins have been drag raced in both sequential and parallel modes, and sequential is faster for drag racing too.

Here's how to put the oem twins into parallel mode:
