Default Single turbo or tt conversion?

I am playing with the idea of boosting my na stealth and i am pondering between a single turbo conversion or a tt. my question is would the tt setup actually be counter productive because of pushing so much power through two wheels? it seems to me and i might be completely wrong about this, but a tt setup on a front wheel drive is over kill cause all youll do is roast the front tires. i was wondering if the front wheel drive would be better controlled with a single turbo? so could the tt setup actually benefit you more than the single turbo in a front wheel drive. thank you.

i say and probably along with every one else. a tt conversion would be the cheapest way and takes little to no fab. work to do cuz everything is bolt on. but i mean either way if you boost your car with FWD then your gonna have traction problems
