Twin turbos will decrease on turbo lag. as we know. a turbo runs off your
exhaust pulses, and it isn't always spinning the turbine and creating
pressure. basically, a single turbo might need 3k RPMS to kick in, while a
twin turbo setup might only need 2k RPMs.

Also, with twin turbos on a v6, you have the turbos right up to the
manifolds, instead of having to run a y-pipe into a turbo which creates even
more turbo lag.

<< Why does it need to be a *twin* turbo setup?
 Plenty of 10 second single turbo 3.8 liter sixes out there
 in a certain GM passenger car.
  Thanks two the Buick folks, there are a number
 of turbos to choose from for just about any speed-need.
 Turbos aren't brand loyal, they make anything fly!
