I drove a sick japanese 280 with BIG twins on it. Not much of anything below 6700. From there to 8500 it was crazy. The car belongs to a member of Mid Night, the crazy club that does 200 mph on tokyo freeways.

I know that Electramotive tried it in the early '80's but soon switched to a single. Main reasons were, ease of maintenance, less pumbing leaks, and getting a better match between the turbo and engine.

I have driven a T-04 single L28 that has run 11's in the quarter and on the street it spins the tires in 4th gear. It was a lot of fun.

Just for my opinion, I am converting my Skyline GT-R to a T-04 single turbo. Less weight, less plumbing and better response once I convert it to a ball bearing center section.
