Twin Turbos or Twin Chargers?

here soon I am getting a $10,000 check and I was looking into buying either Twin Turbo's or Twin Charger's. Which would you recommend? and one more thing. How much do both cost?

Twin Turbo - $$$?

Twin Chargers - $$$?

Why? As asked hundreds of times before - are you going for the bling show factor to impress the locals, or are you going for HP? $10k would get you a solid, basic blower motor with a single bolt in supercharger kit. Going turbo or two blowers, you'll be spending many hours fabricating, or paying for it.

Id say just go 1 big turbo! If your bottem end is stout enough, go with a t76 or something around there! Plus, i love the sound turbos make!

Do some reasearch and maybe ask some specific questions

A twin turbo is not a direct bolt-in modification, I suggest you spend some time on this site familiarizing yourself with the Twin Turbo set-ups....

There is a thread on here about twin superchargers. I would count twin superchargers out because they jsut make no sense. I say to dent size turbo's, or a nice single super charger. single t76 turbo would be pretty nuts too.




I got a dumb question to go with other questions....wanna sell that 10k dollars for 50 bucks?
