I don't have them but after all I've seen it's the only kit I would consider and will go with them in the future.

Nothing to complain about so that's why not much on here.

What are you wanting to do with the car? If your looking for just personal reliable power the agp kit is great. From my experience with my friends cars that have turbo builds, twin kits make great street power for just random playing. But the cars that win roll racing and hit the hardest are custom built single turbo. Of course there is a lot to be said about the rest of the setup of the car, power isn't everything! I don't know how to explain it like the builders on here can, but 98% of the time, the single turbo car will always beat the twin car hp to hp. Maybe because those that know how to build a custom single vs. a twin kit is they know all the little efficiency tricks and know how to set up the rest of the car. Im no professional so take my advice with a grain of salt, but with my 20+ friends that have turbo builds in the 900 to 1100hp, the twin cars get drug.

Then I'd recommend single build. That is what we normally do, between tx2k and like events, that's what gets it done.
Edit: unless of course your talking twin lambo or twin gtr builds but thats a whole different ball game lol

I don't know those of which you speak, but... most of the single kits I've seen have been on 4 cylinder cars... Most, not all... Properly designed and fitted twins probably wont "hit" as hard due to a smoother power delivery... When I was running 67/66 Precision PTE turbos, they spooled almost immediately and they hit very very hard... I could blow the tires off at will in any gear... including 5th at over 190 mph... I did this at the Texas Mile.... We had hell doing dyno pulls at 1150 to 1200 RWHP with the smaller turbos as they hit so damn hard...we were foever spinning the tires on the dyno... It was crazy... The new bigger turbos lag about 500-600 rpms initially in where the power comes on, but then they blow the smaller turbos away in total power... BIG TIME... we dont spin the tires very often at 1400 + rwhp.... Much smoother though stronger power delivery... Another thing to consider is the IAT heat buildup with a single... You have to go huge to stay in the efficiency range of the turbo with the cubic inches these cars have... and if you decide to go bigger, then that increases... The bigger the turbo, the longer it takes to spool it up... so while you're building boost with a huge single, the guy with properly sized twins is running away... A smaller single will hit harder and faster but wont build the same power... There is a physical trade off... The guy that works on my car (mechanic not the tuner) has a mitsubishi with a single 80 promod... it makes stupid power for the size of the engine... 2.0 liter I think, and 1026 AWHP... I now run 76/75 twins... the IAT's are way down from what they were with the smaller turbos... Old set up... 93 ambient at a 1/4 mile strip... 193 and pulled 8 out of 12 degrees total timing at the end of a 1/4 mile pass... New set up... 76/75's, 93 ambient temp at the Texas Mile... one mile later they are 134 degrees and no timing pulled.... A big single is going to make regular maintenance a pain due to the piping and location of the turbo... I'm betting the twin guys you know are running moderate boost levels where the single guys are running substantially more boost... Just guessing... A properly designed and fitted twin kit will make smoother power, more power for a given size of turbo... My only concern when comparing my car to a Lambo or GTR is the traction... I'm only putting power to 2 wheels... Other than that... I may get walked by a few of them that are seriously well built, but not many of them... just my take... I believe you in what your saying but wanted to add some info from my personal experience to add to it...
