Default single or twin turbo

I'm going to be putting a turbo in my 06Z. I don't really know much about them. Should I go with twin turbo? What brand? What parts will I need and how much am I looking at?

have you run a search yet even for this topic, man?

theres a bunch im sure of it...

but ill throw you a bone.

tt > st

twin turbo = less spool time because the smaller turbo pre-spools the bigger turbo...
also, less PSI is required on the TT in order to create a larger output of HP, in turn putting less stress on your turbos making them last longer.

Have you researched this topic at all? How much boost are you going for?

Why go with a single or twin? I would do at least 3 turbos minimum for the maximum boost.

Think a twin turbo set up with a Sts rear mount, and a supercharger would be sufficient along with a little bit of nitrous.

and less pressure on the cylinders running the twins. but the twins will run you more money

Have you? It is a twin turbo, not compound turbo.

That sounds perfect. You think a 100 shot would be good?
