Qucker spool up, Best you can get for towing, extremely low EGT's for amount of power.

Overall you get best of both worlds usually when upgrading turbos your gonna lose drive ability and will be Hard to tow if you go to big.
With twins you get none of cons with all and more pros.

Will tow better cause of that much more power and lower EGT's and just as driveable since they use your same sized stock turbo for the small one.

In my opinion the best upgrade you can do for your truck. A nice set of twins and one of Rob's tunes (tranny upgrades too of course). My daily driver is an 07 CC/SB classic. I have a set of the standard twins that Nathan's put on the LBZ's I think it's the same turbo he uses on the LLY's as well. I drive with what Rob calls his hot street tune. Same tune I race with when I race this truck. It's 7200 lbs race weight, including me minus the tail gate and spare tire. It runs a very consistent 12.6 et at 106,+ If I drive it on cruise control at 65 on the highway I can get 22 mpg with it. Tune is around 575 hp to the ground according to Rob, although I've never dynoed it. EGT's stay very manageable. My trucks go through the traps at about 1200 degrees. Towing with my tow tune they don't reach 1100. I tow a 36' enclosed goose neck race trailer. Twins may not be for everyone, I wouldn't have a diesel truck of any make without them.
