Was there ever just a single turbo supra every built.

How quickly a turbo or twin turbo setup depends on a number of factors. A sequential setup on a twin system will get up and go very quickly... Nonetheless, it is very popular to convert a dual setup for a "Big Single" setup which offers spool that's still quick but also has more room up top and greater efficiency.

There were also the 1JZ-GTE and 1G-GTE MKIIIs which were both twin turbo setups. The 1G-GTE is a rare find (even in Japan which is the only market they were sold in) and not many people know of it or are familiar with the specs. It's a 2.0l inline 6.... kind of an odd bird.

Cool man, what about converting non turbo to turbo?

For the Mkiv, the primary factor you have to keep in mind is that the car is more than just an engine. The Mkiv's braking system (calipers, abs), suspension, ignition, transmission, differential, etc., etc., etc. are all much more capable in the TT version than the n/a. Sure, you can slap a turbo on an n/a and make a few more ponies, but you will not end up with a TT. If you want a TT, wait, save up some more $, and get it. It'll be significantly cheaper in the long run to do this than trying to turn an n/a into a full TT.
