I thought they were all Twins, apart from the GZE that was supercharged.....
Mate has one at his workshop with a single (genuine toyota) Turbo on it. Looks bog stock.
Have Googled 1g-gte and all i find have 2 turbos.
anyone know for sure? Cheers.

1ggte never came single turbs... most likely it's had a turbo upgrade 
altho turbo upgrades didn't seem to help power of the 1g

There are a few over here, but I can understand what you're saying, they're never going to have the same sort of kick when lumbering around a barge-ass GA70 body

GA61 is the perfect chassis for a 1G-GTE

1G-GTE with a 2.4L stroker kit would be nice I bet!

Nah it wouldn't rev like a 1G, so in that case a 1JZGTE would be much nicer, not to mention cheaper.
1G with nice turbo setup would be perfect, tiny, light and revvy

A nice GT25 should suit it well, no doubt probably come on boost faster than the factory twins, and have uber top end.
WRX's have that problem cos they usually have a larger plain bearing turbo and the EJ20 is uber over-square.
