Anyone that thinks stock twins are better, has not DRIVEN a properly sized single setup.

It is much different then you think. Take a drive and trust me you will run, not walk, to pull those turbos off.
Couldnt have siad it better myself a medium sized turbo and cams have good response, Im making 400tq at 4600 rpm with my set up

and what about compairing a proper aftermarket setup of twins. If you do it right they should still spool and hit full boost faster then a single.

I know everyone is going to say but new turbos hit and spool much better now. Well so should some smaller ones like BIC and his Twin GT28R's

I don't think his are loosing out on the top end because he went with smaller turbos.

I am just saying this from all the things i have read. this will be my first twin setup and i was hoping to keep it a twin setup.

there is still a reason why MFR's still make Twin turbo'ed cars instead of putting in a single. The Engineers who make this stuff still see an advantage to using some smaller faster spooling turbos.

I want a car that's like Popeye (Hitting the gas is like eating a can a spinich) Instant Power at almost any time any RPM Not just 3500 + Obviously i am not thinking 1000 rpm either but if i could have things spooling at 2500 that would be fantastic

Plus twins do have a bit of a uniqueness factor to them since most people go single

This is not a good argument anyway. Cams are a good mod to do with either setup.


935 saids that all he has are the 272 cams. With the new cams and his middle or larger turbo upgrade, and my 255 fuel pump and some 550's, what would some of you gurus guestimate my hp at? Also, is the stock internals of the 1jz under any danger at around 400-500 hp? I've heard great things about the 1jz, but have never ridden in one or read that much about them yet other than whats on here. I have my clip, and I think I'm going to go ahead and go singe turbo. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I also want to know how the car will idle with the 272's in it. I don't want it to feel like it's missing. Robert said I could adjust the fuel and make it idle better. Does anyone on here have the 272's in their 1jz? ..................lol

If your worried about Idle stay away from the HKS 272's Id recommend the crower small core 272 if your interested in a set shoot me a pm I went with the hks 272 but I have a brand new set of crower 272 small core

Yeah a proper twin set up might spool 1000rpm sooner but is it worth twice the hassle, twice the piping, and over twice the cost it wasnt for me id rather spend that extra money on suspension and brakes

you have agood point there.

I had an Idea about the Piping. Wont get rid of most of it but might be able to keep it small and still get all the flow you need.

your right about the cost though. it just is a hell of allot more expensive.

well maybe i will go single down the road. we will see. If i find it really isn't that much of an advantage for streetable power to have twins and get the early spool.
