Smile Twin Turbo FR-S/BRZ?

If we could lower the compression ratio, would it be possible to twin turbo the FR-S or BRZ. Back in 1993 Subaru twin turboed the japanese spec Legacy, it was a 4 cylinder. Thoughts?

With enough cash anything is possible but why would you TT over a single turbo?

It has been covered many times. Proper sized single turbo will be good enough.

It's still a twin turbo. Sequential twin turbos just utilize 1 turbo for lower speeds and the other turbo for higher speeds.

And btw the rx7 and Supra had sequential turbos also but we're advertised as twin turbos.
