twin turbo=2 turbo's
twin scroll= 1 turbo that has 2 exhaust inlets. Rather than having the DS and PS manifold meet at the collector there are 2 independant exhaust pipes running all the way to the turbo, one from the DS and one from the PS.

From what I've read the sequential tt setup wasn't as good as the twin scroll because there was a dead spot in the tuning during the transition from 1 turbo to the other.
This should help answer your questions

BTW, $1000 sounds cheap. What exactly are you getting for $1000, just the block, a complete engine including the turbos or what?
