So thoroughly confused, I did some searching and enjoyed this...

So, let me just make this clear (I hope I'm not wrong, that would make me sound dumb). Twin turbo and Biturbo mean the exact same thing. They mean two turbos. There is no difference. It's marketing speak. Mercedes uses the term Biturbo because it sounds uppity classier? BMW uses the term TwinPowerTurbo because it sounds stupid sportier. It has nothing to do with the turbos being sequential or parallel, it has nothing to do with which specific cylinders feed the turbos, it has nothing to do with the size of the turbos, it has nothing to do with where they are located. Bi=Two=Twin. That is all. End rant.
