Default sequential turbo!? WTF i need help!

yo guys wassup first time im here hope all goes swell..... any how im starting a turbo project with a TD04 (mitsu VR-4) turbo, but one of my friends told me that i'll be unable to use it because since it is from a twin turbo VR-4, it uses a sequential system, meaning that one needs the other to function. now this is what he told me, i need the real opinion from here. id appriciate your help guys thanks.

A turbo is NOT a turbo ESPECIALLY if it came from a TT setup. The TT Vr4's came with two TD04-09B with a 6cm^2 housing. (.41 A/R) and are smaller than a 13G. You wouldn't want to use one of them as a single as they choke at 280 cfm. The compressor wheel measures 49 mm total diameter and 34.5 mm minor giving it a 50 trim. The turbine measures 47.25 mm major and just barely under 39.50 mm (39.37 to be exact).

The only thing smart that your friend said is that you can't use it. Not because it can't be used but that it shouldn't be used, he just didn't know what, when, where, or why.

That thing is a peashooter at best. What do you plan on installing it on, a Vespa?

The turbo will work just fine, on a lawnmower or RC car but not a real one. I thought that was abundantly clear. Whitey was saying 'a turbo is a turbo' meaning a sequential turbo works on the same principles as one used in a non-sequential setup.

[B}In other words DONT USE THAT TURBO[/b] Get a nice T3

Well, wait a minute. If you actually have a sappy EJ1 then it might be a different story. You MAY be able to break 90hp with it so long as you can get past the carb aspect. lmfao
