Blown Motor, Engine Rebuild/Replacement.

Just brain storming here but since some of these single turbo kits claim to spool just as fast as a twin turbo then why didn't Nissan just design a big single turbo for the gtr..?? ? Also it appears the new z will also be a twin turbo.. I'm sure Nissan knows what they are doing by making v motors a twin turbo setup..

Can't help but notice you really have something against boosted performance don't you. Since obviously your not talking about the vsr single turbo kit when your always defending that shop.

Not at all, actually I was going to buy a kit from bp but didn't want to spend thousands of more dollars not knowing where he may be in the near future.. As far as the vsr single turbo goes, yes that could be improved in many ways just like bp has revised their kit already a few times only to make it better.. Also I have yet to hear anyone blowing a motor with the bp kit which is amazing but that just shows how well it was designed..

Isn't the whole point of a twin turbo set up to avoid turbo lag?
