It is possible, and it is done , it is called staging .
I personally would not do it , I think one of the ricers had it , can't
remember which one , but I was told that alot of them went to a large single
instead to make more power.

Probably, for simplicity sake.

There are tons of suppliers these days, I used to deal with turbonetics in
california quite a bit for my projects.
But your best bet is to get onto a saab ng/list of some sort and start
asking what they have done , for something like this it is best to see what
others have accomplished in the R&D department so you don't go duplicating
mistakes [ $$$$$ ] that have already been made.
The odds of getting the exact info you need for your exact set up is pretty
good.
Don't forget though that you have fuel to contend with , as in injector size
and of course over all fuel delivery from the pump itself and threw the
stock lines.
If you are only going for 50 more hp you are "probably" ok with the stock
pump and lines, but if you are shooting for big gains , then count on
upgrading the fuel system with a better pump and possibly/most likely the
intercooler as well.
Good luck .

You could be better off with a single ball bearing T28. It spools at
about the same power/gas flow as the T25 but makes higher boost for
further up the rev range. Almost a direct fit for T25 as exhaust
flange is T25, outlet needs one stud hole slotting in dump pipe,

Or sequential parallel using two T25's, Starts on one so it behaves
just like it does now at low rpm, then switches to both in parallel so
it has scope for over 400bhp.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
