Garrett Gt6041 and twin turbo setup

I know that the garrett gt6041 is on many websites that say 1450-200 hp. does it make that much with the engine or is that the max hp the car should have when using this turbo? Also i was wondering about a twin turbo setup's. If i use a turbo that makes 150 hp, does that mean that if i twin turbo the car i will be making 300 hp just off the turbo's? How does the twin turbo work in reference to horsepower?

How much HP do you want to make?
YOu sound really inexperienced with performance mods.

I'm think we've got ourselves a troll.

If not, you should probably just go ahead and read. A lot. For at least 2 straight months before asking another question.

wow ...

i'll give you the benefit of the doubt and hold on the "troll"-thing, but you clearly need to start reading up on turbochargers.

your question doesn't really make sense, but i'd assume you're trying to ask whether the turbo itself is a bolt on device for the advertised horsepower. to that, the answer is NO. predictions/estimates can be made based on compressor maps, but there are many other variables that go into it - turbines (wheels and housings), engine displacement, engine mods (fuel, airflow, ignition) and working within its efficiency are just some of the factors i'd imagine.

Also i was wondering about a twin turbo setup's. If i use a turbo that makes 150 hp, does that mean that if i twin turbo the car i will be making 300 hp just off the turbo's? How does the twin turbo work in reference to horsepower?
it all goes back to knowing the turbo's and the engine's airflow capabilities. it's really not THAT simple. also, there are more than one type of twin turbo systems.
