Default TT or ST opinion vote here

which makes quicker power, better design, and higher numbers.

vote and explain

debating on another forum and looking for some Mid-A opinions. Short and sweet will do no long debates as they have been discussed millions of times on this forum already. I just dont see how the VQ can benefit more from a single turbo with the necessary maze of piping or the unorthodox turbo locations many singles have to offer. If it were an inline 6 this would be hands down single turbo because you can utilize a equal legth exhaust manifold to benefit a huge single like a t88 lol.

This is just for Mid-A and a few other stragglers opinions!!

Thanks!!

opions on lag, kit design, parts included or missing, ease of install, quality, long term. any input is appreciated.

If you have MKIV Supra or RX-7, single turbo FTW.

For VQ, TT all the way.

Twins = more power potential / less lag in most cases... But stock block twins are twitchy at best. Plan on building up if you're going this route.

I have yet to drive my new twin setup, but I loved the TNetics, aside from what all the haters say. If your looking for affordable, and you don't have a big HP quest, then there is nothing wrong with it.

That being siad, if your a number junkie, or just have the money to waste, go twins =)

I think most will say Twins because with the VQ and the engine bay... you will get more potential bang out of a twin. You simply can't fit a large enough single with our engine to be as effective.
Better yet, get some NOS to get the turbos spinning down low and then go BIG twin boost for insane amounts of power... No more LAG problems then.. LOL

You said lag, so I say twin JWT...big HP needs Twin Greedy or APS....something in the middle is the TN Single set up. Its all relative to the owner, needs, and expectations... If you want to drive even an N/A block stock now a days, you still need to build the block! LOL!
