N/A seems like the best option. Less weight, more reliable, easier overhauls, better throttle response, less heat, less complex..

Whats the weight limit for 200?

About 2550Ibs. I can easily put on more weight to increase my horsepower if need be, so I may try running around 2650Ibs for around ~210WHP. But would have to find the right balance for the car and power range.

Stock twins with a downpipe only and limited to wastegate pressure should be right at 210rwhp. It’s gonna be super tough to
stay under that peak hp target with any turbo setup.

from a reliability standpoint, the single will be easier to maintain and troubleshoot for racing. might also be better for heat management.

heat management and getting the turbos to actually work sequentially was always the hardest part of maintaining a tracked FD for me personally

if you want some perspective, my friend built an S2000 and it made the HP number with the engine completely stock... so he could put the cat in, and smog it and it would be street legal here
