No u can't, the engine comparment is to small, and it will create a lot of heat.

No and why would you want to? Single turbo cars are sooo much better.

Well...

People HAVE put the OEM type twin turbo setup in 1st-gens.

His question was "can I..." and the answer to that is, if you don't have the kind of mechanical insight to see how things will or won't fit, you probably aren't a good fabricator and the answer is no, you can't.

If you've got the money, you can pay someone to do it. That's the only way.
