Default single turbo conversion information?

hi, i recently just bought a 2002 A6(C5) 2.7t and i am woundering if there are any possiblity i am going to be able to convert the twin setup into a single turbo setup. I have researched on how the 2.7t turbos mount on to the manifold and how he manifold mounts onto the head. I found clearence for the piping that will be needed. But im not sure if this is possible.. Also i am woundering about the electronical part of the conversion.

Default Try contacting them. They have a 800hp kit for the 2.7t looks strong

He said they have more than 1 car running. With this kit<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/2360326.phtml">The super 2.7T</a></li></ul>

Default You need to do some research on this...

...because it's not a very good idea.

There are several advantages to two smaller turbos over one large one. Lag is at the top of the list.

Default If you're that power needy, twin KO4's and chipping etc..If you're tip then beef it up too

IIRC there's a way to beef up the tip to take the additional HP and Tourque. The S4 formum and this probably has the data you need in the Archives.

one big turbo = lots of turbo lag. Why would you want that?
