Twin turbo tII

I have a turbo from a 86 sunbird laying around and have been thinking of making my tII twin turbo. The sunbird turbo is a garret twin scroll, but just comparing, it is almost half the size of my s5. I think the compressor is a .42? I was wondering if I would have a problem with running two different sized turbos? I haven't put a lot of thought into this yet. I was just daydreaming and thought it might work. I would of course do supporting mods. It is either do this or install a big single. I think it would be fun to do the twin turbo since I have a turbo laying around. Any thoughts or suggestions or comments would be appretiated.

Not worth the money or the effort to do it. If you want a better spooling turbo that makes more power, just look at a 35R or similar turbo for those needs.

But it is a cool idea, just not worth it.

Yeah I know. I'm trying to decide if I want to turbo the neon or the nighthawk. I don't know. Only time will tell.
