A big single has more power potential than the stock twins.

single turbo kits are also less complicated than the factory twin turbo system with 80 vacuum hoses, solenoids etc. all you have is a big turbo, manifold, and wastegate to worry about

Hey Vosko...I think there are only 74 hoses...as if that made it any easier.
