You would need to somehow make a manifold which allowed one turbo to build boost into the other. One example would be a small turbo to help spool another much larger turbo.
this is known as sequental turbo charging. and as for the v6 there are 2 exhaust manafolds so the way it is mostly done is one for each manafold.

that will be very expensive, you have to get everything customized, but good luck to you. With that much money I'd just buy a different car but thats just me.

accutly it should not be to difficult for ex. all sequental turbo cars that i have seen are like this first turbo lets say its a t25 than there is a small adapter that allows the other turbo to mount to it. the only thing that would have to be moded is another oil fitting and a 2 to 1 pipe to the innercoler(s) or intake. and a boost controler. other than that it souldnt be too hard plus you dont get alot of lag lig a huge turbo.

Yeah you can do one on each exhaust manifold if you have a v block but it's back to the sequential for an inline 6.

you wont be able to do it. it can be done, but its hard, expensive, and pointless. if you have money youd love to spend and just want to be different though i guess you could find someone to do it for you...

like i said there are ups and downs to everthing the up is lag is reduced and little stuff like that rather than having the lag of a huge turbo but the downfall is there is a littl exsperamentation that needs to be done i say if money is no option and this is what you want than go for it just make sure you find and talk to peoiple that have done it or manufacutr the parts for it so you dont blow somthing up.

No doubt. ALWAYS err on the side of caution. It's better to need to push harder than to push too hard right off the bat. Caution will be your best friend in this endeavor.

twin turbo in a 4 cylinder car is a bad idea..beleive it or not the single turbo will make your car quicker then a twin turbo will..i know it doesnt sound right you would think that two turbos are better then one and in a 6 or 8 cylinder car it is but not with a 4 banger. it IS possible BUT its also a big waste of money..if you want to do the twin turbo thing i would suggest buying a 3000gt. if not just stick with the regular turbo save your money for other upgrades and your car will be pleanty fast
