You wont gain much from going twin turbo on a 4 banger. You would not get enough exhaust flow to spool two turbos. Unless you found two really small turbos.

It can be done, but it wouldn't be worth the time and money to get it all setup correctly and then get very little power out of it.

youre best bet would be to throw on a garret t3/t4 hybrid and go with that.

I'd rather go twin scroll turbo than sequential turbos on a 22ret, but that's just me.

Wouldn't really be worth it, and most twin turbo tuners end up going with one big turbo anyway, I would second the twin scroll turbo, but then again a 22re turbo or no turbo is ever going to a real fast motor with moderate, reasonable money into it.

If you want to go real fast, swap in a 2jz turbo motor.
