At the moment yeahconsidering your 15 you will own it for a long time, but just a heads-up ICE will never be illegal just no new ones.

Yeah I'm sort of just going off carsales what I've seen. Obviously the amount people list for is quite often a bit higher than the actual sale price.Seems a lot for a VF SS. VF Redline sold here mid last year for $45k. Took a while to sell too. Dealer was having trouble understanding why at $45k his low km Redline ute was not selling.
I think smaller twin turbos spool up faster, the reason BMW use twin turbos on their inline 6 M models. I've driven a few XR6 Turbo Falcon's with bigger single turbos and they're pretty flat down low. I never got into turbos to know much about them as most are rice burners and we were always modifying V8's to beat them!also remember with turbos if u have two u only have half the engine trying to spool up each turbo but if u have one slightly bigger turbo u use the full engine to spool so it can be more responsive/power with just a single, also half the pipework, cooling pipes, oil pipes ect
yea if the turbos are sized correctly then should be ok but there is always give and take if u want faster spool down low u can limit to top end, bmw may even use two different size ? one for quick spool for bottom end and a larger one for top end i think i remember nissan doing that back in the day, if the falcons are like my cruze turbo all ecu controlled then they are made to be laggy down low u can adjust the pressure delta to get them to spool faster and quite a bit to get them more responsive, but yea i dont know a great deal about turbos either, prefer positive displacementI think smaller twin turbos spool up faster, the reason BMW use twin turbos on their inline 6 M models.
