Right thats it!! time to think about single blower....

OK, ive had boost problems no end, I've have submitted as many questions and searched everything and everywhere as I can be bothered and every time I ring my mate who builds these things for a living ( RX - rotorys that is) and ask for advice all I get down the phone line is" go single, go single , go single, " now he assures me that I will get heaps more power, is this true?
We have talked about the different options ( breifly) and he already has a number of 13b engines fully ported ( and some not) with single turbos attatched so he reckons the quickest way through this is simply to take mine out and drop one of these in.

options...
Bridge port with T78
Extend ports with T04 and T51kai
Normal ports with T04
and a few others which are just stock, I thought another option would be to get a stock with stock twins and just do a really mint NON- Seq job.

Prices vary ( obviously) but I got hes very relaxed about allowing me to pay it off over time so its not really an issue.

What do I want.....
I good reliable FD that I wil be driving to work and back about 3 times a week and want to do the odd drag meet here and there, maybe once a month.

comments please? advice about problems with single turbo setups before undertaking this?

as far as the bridgeport goes, the T51kai would most likely be more suitable than the T78.

I guess the question that needs to be determined first is just how much power you want to make, or how fast you want it to run the drag race.
