Yes but they're way too big. Honestly, if you want twins with reasonable power and response, -5, cheap and simple upgrade. If you decide to go single, this would be a smart move, the latest and greatest turbo everyone is raving about is the Borg Warner 8374. Excellent response and power. 8374 all the way is my recommendation. If you want ridiculous power and lag the 5533 is for you.

Awsome thanks very much will definately look into these it's just that twins are bolt on and singles are a bit of work and change the stealth look of the engine bay..lol that's all.

Have you heard about the street legal r34gtr named I demon in nz? It's making 1000 horses on HKS gtrs he does run a 3.0 litre setup.

No he isn't, he plucked a bullshit number out of the sky and tried to claim that's what he is making,

Fact is a set of 2530s (-5) and gtrs (-10) will make the same power due to the rear becoming the restriction, the -5s will give much better response and dont have compressor surge problems

For the power you're after go single - far less issues with cooling and a much tidier, less stressed engine. Also - the reviews of the Tomei ARMS are less than favorable - i was considering them at one point myself but after reading many disappointing reviews i'm more in favor of the HKS 2530 kai and gen 3 GT-SS and GT-RS for twin setups however a decent single is still a better option.

Having said that iDemon has had extensive bottom end work to make the amount of power he's rolling on - for 500bhp it's debatable whether this is needed. For 800hp+ you will need to crack open the block and reforge it or you'll end up with a much much bigger bill. You'll also need to sort oil systems and upgrade your injectors and pump. After this, you'll also need a half decent ECU to run it all.

I also believe iDemon is now running a single because response and power levels in newer singles are far superior to old skool twins.
