The problem is that few have or have had similar BHP Turbo or Supercharged cars, and owning not test driving is the only way to judge IMHO. In my opinion, and having spent far too much money and time finding out, if you are a real Petrol Head there is only one answer, a single turbo.

It depends entirely what you want from the car in terms of power, and driveability.

So there is no easy answer.
