Default Two Twin Turbo or to Upgraded Single?

Here are my choices for my turbocharger upgrade. I like the TD07 because it's single and easy, but I don't know anything about the turbo. I really like the twin TD05's because it's different and they will give me more power...

One on hand, I have a Trust TD07 kit. It come with manifold, turbo, wastegate, full 3" exhaust and interooler piping (missing intercooler) for $2000 plus shipping (from Australia). I don't have any pictures for this kit yet.

On the other hand, I have a twin Trust TD05 "kit". It's just the turbos, wastegate, manifold and downpipe. Here's a couple of pictures...

I'd say twin TD05s. That's a very uneducated opinion though so take it for what you will.

Greddy sucks... Yes, I know Trust is a Gredyd line (or vice versa, whatever). If, or I should say when, I go to a big single setup, I'm going with a Turbonetics/Garrett turbo.

I want to go this route also. It'll be something different and will yeild more power as well.

Well ALL (ok maybe 1 or 2 aren't) of the fastest Skylines are twin. Supras are practically the exact opposite with the big names being singles.

Take that for what it's worth.

Check this out. Posting on drag first to try and avoid shipping it.

I like the HKS T-51R thats on that blue RX-7 that posted a video and pics in the eye candy thread. Im not sure of the power output but that car is beast as hell and it sounds nice as shit! There seems to be a little lag but not too much.
