You should do some more research on the matter.

Anywho, welcome! Love the name, Prometheus is one of my favorite philosophers, and even Plato considered him to be the smartest man he ever met.

The reason I am a fan of the twins is not for power, but for the thought that was put into them. The Seq. twins are as unique as the rotary engine its self.

As for the Heat issues of the twins, that is just another challenge that requires careful research and planning to overcome. (but it can be done)

I don't want to stray too far away from the car's original Intent, I just want to "free its spirit" and let the car be all it can be with what it was originally given.

The FD is more than enough of a car for me. (Stock)

I have little experience driving light weight and powerful cars. And to become obsessed with outrageous HP numbers is a sure way to distroy my car, and possibly injure myself or others (on the track)

I will definately research the advantages of the Single turbo conversions, before I completely wright them off as "not being an option"

Thanks for all the positive replies.

Glad to see a down-to-earth person.

From what I have gathered from my limited research on single turbo upgrades and the stock turbos, there is absolutely no reason to stay with the twins unless you are just limited on funds. You're thinking too much about the hardcore singles people do. The thing is, no matter what you desire out of a boosted engine, there is a turbo out there just for your. Technology in turbochargers are great like that.
