Re: VQ35DET
Nissan does not make a VQ35DET. They have made a VQ30DET 3.0L single turbo that was in some of the full size sedans(Cedric and Gloria) that was rated at 270-280 hp. There are a few people importing these, but mostly to use the longblock in a Maxima. The next GT-R will have a VQ32DETT (destroked VQ35), but you will have to wait a couple years for the engine to come out and several more for them to get enough mileage so they can be retired to be exported reasonably.
Nissan makes it very easy to understand their engine nomenclature, unlike other manufacturers like Toyota. Toyota makes a 3SGTE engine that the T does stand for turbo, but it is a 2.0L 4 cylinder turbo. A Toyota 1JZGTE is a 2.5L twin turbo inline 6 and a 2JZGTE is a 3.0L twin turbo inline 6. Please note the single T, but there are 2 turbos. In Nissan nomenclature, the first 2 letters are the engine series, such as VQ, RB or SR. The next 2 digits are the displacement. If there is a D, then it has (D)ual overhead cams. If there is an E then it has (E)lectronic fuel injection. A singe T at the end means a single (T)urbo. If there are 2 T's at the end then it means (T)win (T)urbo. Here are a few examples from a JDM Silvia, 300ZXTT, Skyline GT-S and a Skyline GT-R:
SR20DET - SR series, 2.0L DOHC with electronic fuel injection and a single turbo
VG30DETT - VG series, 3.0L DOHC with electric fuel injection and twin turbos
RB25DET - RB series, 2.5L DOHC with electronic fuel injection and a single turbo
RB26DETT - RB series, 2.6L DOHC with electronic fuel injection and twin turbos

I've taken a look at the VQ35DET manifolds. From what I see, the USDM steering linkage most likely gets in the way. Also the Gloria/Cedric seem to have more room down where this turbo is placed. Also in Japan, the steering is on the other side, providing more room for the turbo

it will provide more power at a slighlty higher RPM. for example a single turbo car running lets say 200hp more than stock would lose in a 1/4 mile to a twin turbo car running 200hp more than stock because the power is spread more evenly through the rev range instead of the surge of one turbo
You can't really say that. As you haven't stated the turbos used in each application. Use too big of turbos on a TT application and you will have lag. As only 3 cylinders are powering each turbo.
You can have a small single (powered by all 6 cylinders) and have GREAT throttle response and midrange punch. Or you can put a med/big turbo and get high end power w/ some low end lag. Or you spend mega dollars and use a ball bearing center sectioned single turbo and get it all. Low/mid/high w/ little lag.
What you say below is true to a point. But if the 1/4 is the only consideration then you also have to account for tranny. Use an auto tranny for the quarter and they can brake boost and launch while already in + psi. aka no lag
