im debating on wether or not i should go with a single s366 or s371 or twin i have a stock bottom end right now so tuning will be conservative but i plan on building the bottom end soon my goal is to have a 700 to 750hp dd that can tow and still hit the track on the weekends when im all said and done ive been looking at some of the kits trent has just wondering what everyones thoughts or suggestions are

Either of those choices will be good, they say that twins will be alittle easier on your bottom end opposed to a single turbo. I am about to put my s366 on soon. So I can't give you info on how that turbo performs. Alot of people will say a 66 or twins. The 371 is also supposed to be a stronger performer!

I love my S371, and it still tows fine too. Just need a little more fuel to go with it. My 300k mile CP3 is tapped out.

Twins imho are not easier at all on a stock engine if anything they are worse because they will make much more power sooner as opposed to a big single (s472 and bigger

I'm really liking my modified stock turbo from DTS. Runs strong and drives just like the stocker did. Plus, I'm betting it'll work awesome in a compound setup down the road.

I agree with this, over stocker twins make alot of low rpm tq, safter for pistons, harder on rods imo, i think with stock inj. a overstocker twin setup is a very safe setup though
