Default twins or single

look at my mods in my sig. I was going to go twins and u have the turbos and am this clost to buying the piping from a memebr here. but now I got to thnking should i really go twins or should I have gone wiht a 64/71/14 for say E.D.

the twins i have are a bd super b single over an Hte3b 23cm exh housing.

so my questions is should i trade/sel my twins nad get an ED single or the piping. this is a play toy over the road trip taker. but mainly a play toy

my DD became my 82 f-150 300-6yl now that it got its new 300 and two bbl carb

twins definately. it will make your power band longer. smaller turbo to spool up fast from take off and bigger turbo to buile boost on top of the other at higher rpms.

If you read that article, you would have noticed it was in reference to putting turbos off of diesels onto small-block gassers....and in that case, yeah, a HX40 might just be able to support 700 horse... Just my two cents...
