this will probably get deleted but meh.
just putting it out there that i find it funny how people have given the name 'twin turbo' to those cars that are modded to be faster? i dont know too much about the ones in game cuz i havent owned one in game
HOWEVER
i do know that in real life, just because a car is twin turbo, does NOT by any means make it a faster car. i have owned all sorts of cars and i currently own a twin turbo subaru legacy, which i can say, hands down, is not as fast as my previous SINGLE turbo impreza.
so yeah, it might just be a game, but i still find it entertaining. Those cars should be called 'upgraded turbo', not 'twin turbo'.
but thats just my opinion as a car enthusiast.
let the haters hate...

vtec + turbo??? shit that must have been a death wagon!!! :O
yeh twin turbo has a nasty Valley Of Death (turbo lag) between primary and secondary spooling. single turbo any day, unless the twins are running in parallel ;)

Instead of twin turbo people should just call it a "bigger turbo".
EDIT: But I've realized the little kids who don't know about cars wouldn't understand. They'll continue to call it "Twin turbo", oh well the world goes on. :facepalm:
