If it's ONE, then it's too small.
If it's TWO of them, then you might have something there.
Those turbos are MEGA expensive - something like $2,000 EACH?
I think a custom twin turbo set-up would easily net 300...350...400hp range to the wheels?

RETed hit the nail on the head there. One of them would be far too small. But if you have another one or could get one for a good price then you're in there!

The turbo is physically smaller.
Due to the higher flowing cutting-edge wheels, it will make about the same amount of power as a stock Hitachi HT-18, if you run the numbers off the compressor maps.
