Twin SC or Twin Turbo

I know alot of people go with the Turbos but I like the idea of Twin SC. Even though they rob a little from the motor I would still be capable of putting down ALOT. Twin YSI w/Intercooler? Or Twin Turbos w/Intercooler?

I voted Twin Turbo however, I've never seen a Twin YSI setup and would be interested in seeing how this works out.

Ive never seen a twin YSi. Seems like a lot more work than a TT, but it could be cool.

Im a turbo guy, and i know you didnt ask for opinions but it just seems to me like running two superchargers is like gutting your car to run faster, but then towing your car hauler down the track behind the car.

No, its not the same, it also adds more engine load and power loss to create power.

Twin YSi will take a lot of crank hp to turn them.

Locked by mistake.
