That about covers it. On a single turbo, one TB would go together with greater ease. If the throttle seems to have a dead spot at top RPM, as in more throttle does not improve power, then the TB is too big. Rig the TB to open just a bit past what appears to be wide open. In many cases this allows for a range of directed flow that often produces more than just wide open. A bigger TB can be added later if required. A nice air horn with re-entrant bell shape
flows like magic. An air filter........always.

William,
 
For a point of reference, I'm running three 46mm TB's on my n/a p-port 3-rotor, and they are working great.  This is my third intake, second for the p-port engine.  This is installed in a Lancair ES, so it probably has more room under the cowl that you have.  If your engine isn't peripheral-ported, then you're probably better off with a single TB.
