I wasn't saying that twins do not produce respectable tourque numbers, but that 360rwtq gain still blows my mind. But on the other hand dynos don't win races.
Personally I think that twins just make more sense on a V engine.

Like i said, it's all packaging. IMHO, unless you're making close to 200HP per liter it's not a Serious turbo car. I'm not there yet, but then again it's not May yet <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

Re: Whats better Twin or single turbo????
i thought we are talking about ls1's on this forum?
show me a car doing 800rw and i'll worry about fitting a turbo on the car that can do 900, then at 900, try for a grand and so on... so at this point in the game having turbos that can support 1300hp is a waste of effort, not to mention less eficcient for the 5-800 that is possibe.
