Not just more efficient, but also more reliable

I don't think they make a twin-scroll turbo small enough for the 2 cylinder!

It's not actually impossible to get a twin-scroll turbo small enough for the 2-cyl. Anyway, even if you'd get a regular turbo, I still believe a single is better to overcome the turbo-lag, unless you'd get a sequential turbocharging setup, with the smaller one to spool faster at lower RPMs and a bigger turbo as a 2nd stage
