I'm pretty sure that if you do the math to match the correct set of turbos to the 4age's size, you could make twin turbo work. In Hugh MacIness's book called "Turbocharging" he talks about two turbos that are matched to each other - one high pressure one and one low pressure one - to somewhat eliminate turbo lag. I would guess that something like one really small turbo and a normal sized one could work if you matched their peak efficiencies looking at their compressor maps.

I might just be talking out of my ass here... correct me if I'm wrong.
