I am also looking into forced induction, and i am planing on either a turbonetics single turbo or APS single turbo. The install is alot easier on the single turbo systems, and i plan on doing the install myself. Plus the single turbo kits still make for a nasty car.

If you are not going to build-up the motor, I would suggest going with a single. You can also factor in that the money you save with a single turbo you can put towards other upgrades such as a big brake kit (woohoo!) sensors, suspension etc etc.

A lot of newbs will tell you 'but you won't get that kickin the pants of the twins' but those are Fast and the Furious f@gs. Matter fact, one trait of teh ST is the bigger amount of torque in the low and mid range which, believe me, will put you back in your seat.

ST all the way unless money is no object to you.

APS SINGLE. Thats what I just went with. Twins are nice, but really only necessary if you want over 500HP.

I second that!!
Think about what you want as far as power FIRST. If you are looking well over 425 go with twins, below that AND being safe without building the motor, go with a single. right now I am at 395WHP @8PSI with 425FTLBS TQ on the APS Single and no build on the motor. I liked the APS over the Turbonetics because it came complete, there was nothing more I had to buy.

i voted single turbo. Just because... dont ask up. pick what you want and research.

Most the time if you have to ask then you shouldnt be buying either. This is a major personal decision.

You could, I am sure, with a higher boost but you would want to build your motor for that.....
