Possible, but not bright.

The little 4 banger won't make enough exhaust to really spin either up very well.

There was TT D series on here a while back, and it didn't make such great numbers, and it wasn't very fast at the track. It was unique, but that's about all I can say in it's favor.

there's nothing more or less safe about 2 vs 1 turbo chargers... boost is boost.

As mentioned it won't make much power unless its a sequential set up and chances are you don't have the time money or resorces to properly set on of those up...

Even then when power is the main objective then most people with stock sequential setups generally pull the 2 turbos for one big one.

HP numbers not withstanding, how would you plan on stuffing it in a honda engine bay? The plumbing would suck, not only to fab up, but as in performance-robbing. True, it could be done effectively, but in the same hands a single snail setup w/ball bearings would spool just as quick and make more power. The turbos needed for 4 cyls are so small that two tiny ones would actually add to the total amount of weight the exhaust has to spool vs a single.

they arent done for performace as much as doing something different and unique, u cant say you wouldnt like to see a quad turbo b18 with ITB's, even if didnt put done great numbers it would be sick as ****

(trying to sound like lil john) WwwwHAT! oooooKAY!

Dude, wth do you hope to accomplish with twin turbos? honestly. Besides your car being designated by everyone to have twins on a 4cyl. Think meguiars twin charged integra, and imagine the amount of money they put into it. But the amount of cash they spent on it is NOT worth the performance boost.
But on the upside, it would spool faster with two smaller turbos but just think plumbing, space, and money. As far as safety is concerned, if you get it done right then it "should" be safe but if its some hack job there goes your money time and engine.
I could think of so many more ways id spend the money you would put into an extra turbo.
Just single turbo or JSC / Procharge it. Cheaper, simpler, easier.

And what exactly do you want to do with this car when youre done with it?
Track duty / Drag or trailer queen??

EDIT: It would be sick to see a quad turbo set up with ITBs and nitrous. Love to see how many transmissions you'd go thru at a drag. Dude just say FcK it and strap a jet engine on that bitch.

here is the link to ABAZ's project, it was done a long time ago, so the pics are dead, but it made 284whp at 12psi on a stock b18b

Okay.
If you decide that youre willing to go through all that; fab, installation, hella tuning then by all means. Go you.
Id rather put in a single turbo and make the same whp at a lower psi. I wish i had the extra money around to turbo my eg or it would already be done...id like to see what the timeslips would say between a TT ZC and a single turbo stripped EG.

Soccerking3000: my point is that unless you have the time, money, and patience this is seriously not worth the effort...unless you can make the twin turbo's sequential. Yeah it would be tight to say "Hey i have twin turbos on my b18" but that isnt worth my money...more whp and faster timeslips are.
