twin turbo is pointless for a 4 cylinder, and not smart at all for a fwd car. turbos spooling at low rpms are going to give him even less traction. even modified gst's with 1 turbo can barely get traction. he will go through a set of tires before he even makes it down the quarter mile.

yea, i have a pretty much stock 98 gst and traction is a bitch on the street. i haven't ran it in prepared track conditions though. I wish they made the 2nd gen's rwd

why are we not suggesting twin turbos here? lol best set up is to have a small one and a huge one of course i know this is a very bad thing for your pocket but it is worth it lol never forget the intercooler and your waste gate and blow off valve ooooooo and down pipes

Putting a TT in a 4-banger is by far the most pointless thing ne1 can do to a car. 1st they aren't meant for 4-cylinders n like DSM said its not good for FWD cuz of traction problems. Plus even if U did do TT, that could be 2 much power for a lil 4-banger engine 2 handle. Even Sequential Twin Turbos rn't good for 4 cyl's. U'd be working the turbo too much since the engine is small n working really hard. U'd practically spool the turbos up 2 quick (which can be good for boost, but U can screw up the turbo or thats wat I heard, not sure lol) and burn it out.

yea i know but if u have it tuned in right it shouldent get all screwy on ya and if u bore the cylinder's out and get better piston heads and rods and make sure that u can actually run with no problem then u got one hell of a demon

You sound like you've ben watchin to many movies. I dunno who races for $1000, but evenif you did you'd lose if you cant get enough traction. you guys dont know what you are talking about so all im gonna say if 1 turbo is better than 2. im done now.

well than..solorider...
not to...ehm...insult you in any way whatsoever...
but...u talk to much nonsense...
really nice if you want to talk ****, and you can answer
other peoples questions by searching your ass off to find
somebody who asked about the same question,
and allready got an answer to it, so you can copy it and post it here,
but that's not how it works...

this whole tread is about personal preferations...
if u got the money, and the mind to go with it...
i think you'd either better off with a vgt s/turbo,
or a biturbosetup, that fill in eitchother,
by connecting wastegate from 1st to 2nd turbo's t/wheel...
if you got the money, to pay for the grip you're gonna need,
and you make sure you're 1st turbo doesn't begin spooling at like 2k rpm,
u got some drivingskills...

u'll be fine, just get your act together and try to learn...
not be a stubburn mofo....
