Single or Twins...???

hehe, first off i would love to date some hott twins, but that's somthing else. haha

Ok, so what is it guys, i hear a lot about twin turbos and almost nothing about single turbos. which is a better setup for drag, road racing and so forth. I hear alot of stuff about converting supras and Skylines ( :hail: ) to single as opposed to the twin set up. why do that? i would think there is more lag from a single big turbo then from two smaller turbos. This is the plan, a somewhat worked 350 ( ported heads, this that..but nothing like big after market heads or stuff...just the general build up. But add a turbo or boost cam) and either twin turbos or a Single turbo....im thinking maybe even a cummings turbo i have conections from a cemi yard and can get one or maybe 2. Ohh and im not sure if i'll intercool it yet... if i do it, i for sure will intercool it, just not sure when. And im not sure if this will be on my camaro or a buddys car yet either. thanks for all your help guys,
Opha.

32 looks and no replys???

come on guys, i know u guys know almost everything (if not everything ) about boost and turbo applications. I've used search and it did not come up with what i was looking for. Can anyone atleast tell me why they went twin or single vs the other? or lead me somewhere to gain knowledge about the single vs. twin set ups?

thanks guys,
Opha
