you only got flamed AFTER you kept insisting that it was a good idea. .
It's an attempt to subtly be insulting, which failed on many levels. You are also trying to be insulting when you say "(for you apparently)". I got the subtext. I don't appreciate the immature insult mixed in with it. So as my final post on this thread, I repeat my disdain for trolls, and unsubscribe from this thread.

So, do you still think this is a good idea? Would you pursue this avenue of performance enhancing modifications?

At the risk of getting flamed:
Well I think it would be an interesting experiment (interesting to me any way). If I had the time and money, and I had my engine out any ways to turbo it, then I'd love to try it for shits and giggles. Maybe with 2 small turbos, and smaller pipes it'd spool better, after all the engine's so small, I'd think turbo lag would be an issue with 1 large turbo. Maybe the benefits would out weigh the negatives, maybe not. Maybe like you mentioned it would weigh too much, and be too complicated. It was really just a thought experiment. The whole dual everything was just a wild out of the blue thought, that I wanted to discuss with someone. I hadn't even thought about the whole dual throttle bodies thing when I came up with it. A traditional twin-turbo setup must have some benefits, or no one would put them on other cars. I'm not stupid, however. If I skimped and saved to get a turbo setup on my Yaris, I'd go with a proven performer, and get a single turbo. If I had the money to try it, I'd try it.
