Too much work, confusion, and trouble. It would be easier and cheaper to do a single turbo upgrade, and you would end up with a MUCH better engine system in the end.

i dont think it would be a big deal if you could fit them in the engine bay. that bitch twin unit is double the size of our stock TII turbo. and i always thought that the sequential thing was all controller by pressure on the turbo unit, no electronics or anything to control it, but maybe i've been living a lie. i'd rather just have a bigger single than that complicated oversided twin unit that comes on the FDs, but thats just me.

Wont fit, the twins will NOT clear your lower manifold. Besides they SUCK, go single T04.

well, i think he'd be needing a new exhaust manifold (one that would move the turbo unity a little farter up in the engine bay)
