Yep, a single turbo probably would be sufficient as far as power goes,
but a dual setup should be a little better as far as lag and street driving
goes... Also, the exhaust plumbing required for a single turbo could be a
little hairy. It would need a crossover pipe to equalize the pressure
between both cylinder banks, and there are several problems involved with
that. I have a feeling it may actually be easier to do the plumbing for
twin turbos.
