Sequential turbos really do offer the best of both worlds; quick spool up and still a good top end. The reason people ditch sequential on engines like the 2JZ is because it's pretty much impossible to significantly upgrade the turbos while keeping the sequential system working. I don't know anyone who's successfully developed a home-brew sequential turbo setup; it's not impossible but it would take a LOT of time and money to get it working properly. That's why people just throw it all away and go with a simple big single setup, which if properly matched to the engine using a modern turbo doesn't have to be laggy anyway.
