Twins generally cost more, more labor intensive and not as efficient as a good single. They do spool faster, easier to package, and still make more power to kill the efficiency argument.

Seems like most single turbo kits are easier to install, cheaper to purchase, and have been able achieve full boost within 500-750 rpm of a twin system. For guys that have aftermarket exhausts, some may find it difficult to pair it up if it isn't Fast Intentions or Y pipe without a shop fabricating something up. There is a top mount kit, a mid mount kit, and then of course the STS rear mount turbo. The farther away the turbo, the longer the delay before the turbo is under pressure.

Some kits are more complete and easier to install than others, could save money in the long run.

Of course, superchargers, especially GTM's have been pretty impressive with the 370Z's, for anyone wishing to build power a bit more progressively.
