You wouldn't want twins, you'd want a single. And yes you could make a lot more power with the single. The owner of a look shop has a stock motor NSX with a turbo setup making 508 whp. The main reason most people supercharge with NSXs is less lag, and convenience. There are a few well known supercharger kits for the car, while most turbo setups are custom.

The reason I went this route is the reliability aspect, I plan to have the car for a very long time and there are owners with this kit that have over 100,000 miles on their blower. There's also been zero engine failures caused by this kit, that's astounding, some Acura dealerships would even offer it as an option for their customers. It is also the only kit that is 50 state legal (CARB Exempt). So if I ever make it back to SoCal (where my family is) I won't have any smogging issues.

Mugen oil cap came in today, just to add some extra flair in the engin***. Also ordered AEM boost & AFR gauges along with a mounting plate for the dash to replace the ash tray. Will be very clean when finished, hopefully I can install by the weekend. Ill also be helping my friend install his supercharger on his s2000. Busy weekend.

I always loved a nsx, nice car man.

I own my first car still, a 97 Camaro RS Auto, wanted a 97 Z28 6 Speed, but I got what I could afford cause I really wanted a 4th Gen.

Maybe one day...
You have the money to get what you want and do what you want to it, so enjoy it man. :)
