This has Twin Turbo, which just is two turbos (as seen in the photos). BiTurbo or Twin Turbo is basically two turbos. Sometimes in paralell, sometimes serial, but still two separate turbos.
The exception being BMW's "Twin Power Turbo" which can be one or two turbos as explained above...

I suspect that 'Twin Power' just means forced induction. Even the single turbo - single scroll Diesel engines are branded 'Twin Power'
Regarding the twin turbo / BiTurbo, both terms can be swapped as they mean the same. For me I would expect Twin to mean two the same(same size in the case of Turbo's), but this is not always the case.
