Single definitely. Much more simple/easier not to mention 2 turbos doesn't necessarily = more power. Actually most people who have TT cars stock and want more out of them throw a single on them. I'd suggest a nice medium sized T3 turbo. But it all depends on how far you want to go with everything, boost levels, and HP desired. And most importantly, the amount of money you have/are willing to throw out.

well the sad thing is those motors stock cant realy handle much boost so you may wanna do some prepping

with twin turbo, you have to buy 2 turbos, run more piping, etc. waay more of a pain in the ass. the only advantage is that you can use 2 smaller turbos instead of one big one. this eliminates lag, but just barely. one big turbo is the way to go imo. sissies always complain about a few hundred rpm of lag, buy turbos that are too small, etc. give up a tiny slice of bottom end power for a shitload of top end.

Not to mention when you are that low in the rpm band you won't be racing. Plus you can pick the right size turbo so that lag isn't noticeable.

So to "build up my motor" I would want low compression pistons and high compression rings, right?

I'm guessing it's a FS20-DE that you have right?
You can re-build it with some forged internals and boost it.
If you need any help finding the parts to build it let me know, and I'll show you some places to find what your looking for.

Can anybody give me a few good websites that sell turbo kits? And do kits come with the ECU thing to tell the engine its being force inducteioned.
