I SERIOUSLY doubt, you will see any GTRs with twin PT67s. First off, thats 1.9L per turbo, which would equal about ~5000-5500rpm? full boost times. I mean SINGLE 2jzs only get full boost around 4500rpms and thats with more than 50% more displacement (per turbo). Secondly, there's not enough room in the engine bay to run turbos of that size.
I'm pretty sure it will be single kits for the GTRs that make big power.

Sure looks that way, according to this Autoblog story:
Spy Shots: Lexus readying race-prepped LF-A?

The LF-A is one of those cars that seems like it will never get to market. We've gone through two different LF-A concepts already, plus an LF-A Roadster, and the high-performance luxury sport coupe isn't even on sale yet. Spy photographers from KGP have caught another new version of the LF-A near the famed Nurburgring in Germany, this one apparently decked out in full racing regalia. The most tell-tale sign that this is likely not a road-going version of the car is its giant, fixed rear wing in place of the retractable one seen on prior prototypes. It also has what appears to be carbon fiber canards on the outer edges of the front clip, which, last time we checked, aren't often found on road-legal automobiles. Our fine photographer friends suggest that Lexus might be aiming for success in motorsports with the upcoming LF-A, especially after seeing the fine performance of Nissan's new GT-R in competitive racing. After years of waiting and watching prototypes being tested, however, we're not holding our breath anymore.
