[QUOTE="FireRed04Vert, post: 3132722, member: 21229"] One huge advantage I see of twins over a single is each of the twin hair dryers can be much smaller than the single turbo to flow the same amount of air. That results in much quicker spool up times....thus eliminating lag, a huge problem for turbo cars. Once you have a handle on that, it's all down hill. Remember, the engine makes a certain amount of power from boost...and it has no idea whether you're using turbos or a blower. But the blower takes a LOT of horsepower to turn. A turbo has no parasitic drag. You get all the horsepower out the back of the engine instead of being used up to turn the blower...centrifugal or otherwise. [/QUOTE]
