In a sense...and I'm being very general with this, I see it as a worst of both worlds...but still better than no boost!

So I hear what you guys are saying, but how do you both feel when comparing the centifugal to a good single turbo set up mostly in terms of reliability??? but if you have any other input that'd be cool too..
