really depends on what you are gonna use the car for. if you want neck snapping low end power boost id suggest going with a small twin turbo set up. if you want mid-top end power go with a big single....
is your motor prepped for force induction?

Come on brad, go twin turbo. After havin a lil ride in lorens car thats the way id go. Plus its a lil better on a daily driven....
its a remanufactured crate motor.....i dont plan on running to much boost i just want a toy...but i think i would like the more neck snapping low end.....also how much boost do you think the motor would be capable of takeing and what size turbos would be my best bet for twins?

build a high revving 306 or 331 with a dart block and then addan HKS T-51r turbo and your set to go.

Why do you call bs. A good friend of mine has a twin turbo stealth with a 15g turbo up front and a 13g turbo on the back. It does work and also does allow for strong pull all the way through the rpm band.

ok put a twin turbo set up on ur stang 1 side put a 15g other side put a 13g
OK guys look, it goes like this.....
Get a nice supercharger for the low end, and one huge ass turbo for the top end. Don't ask me how it works because i have no clue, but i know some foreign companies like Renault and Peugeot have been doing it for years to fill the RPM range better.
Just imagine....supercharger gear whine up to about 3500rpm, then whistle of the turbo after that to about 8500rpm, then that blow off valve hissing durring the shifts....

Im just curious how they fit them both under the hood. I have friends with turbo'd Hondas and DSM turbos and their single 18G and T04e turbos barely fit between the engine block and radiator. we are doing another turbo install in a few weeks if twins will fit without major modification Id love to try it.
yeah the super/turbo setup was used on a lot of old school rally cars. I read something in MM&FF about that on the under pressure page...
sorry to get so far off topic btw...

They fit just fine, the 15g is not much larger than the 13. With the 15g up front theres still prob 3/4 of an inch between it and the radiator.
And i also never said anything about putting those turbos on a mustang just simply showing that you can run a larger, smaller turbo setup....
