its all opinion, some say twins some say singles.
im running a super hx40 over an ht3b 23cm housing so its a close match you what your doing.
i like it alot.
twins you will enjoy the fast spool up, and the big turbo will never let you runs out of steam.you have the best of both worlds, especially good for towing etc. the spool up keeps temps down and you have the airflow.
on the other end alot of people enjoy a single turbo. less mess under the hood ect.
a single turbo creats more of a "challenge" in creating horsepower. requires alot more skill and knowledge with pump tuning.famous quote from HAMMER "nothing its harder then a big single when it lights". you can achieve good effects from a single with good pump tuning. if you know how to tune, you can get the single to spool up quick and still enjoy top end. it just requires more time and effort to get these results. with twins it makes things easier. for a dd and towing i would recomend twins, if you just sled pull and race alot, a single could be more practical. this is just my opinion on the debate as its all personal preference. hope it works out for you
