Default Hey turbo-tards, a couple a questions

So, i'm going to be in the market for a power adder (in about 8-12 months). I had a centri s/c and gave it a good run, but it's gone now, so i figured i'd look into a turbo setup. This is primarily going to be a track car (1/4 mile) and i'm looking for the best times possible. i'm running a fully built, forged mmr streetmod 950 with 4v heads. So i'm going to be researching and looking around, my questions are:

A. What should i be looking for, something in twin 57's (or bigger), or something more in a single 71 or 91 (or bigger), or something different ???

B. what's a rough estimate on cost for the setup (keep in mind money is not a problem, and i'll be installing myself)

if it were me id be running 1 big turbo since it is a track car, our cobra is running 88mm @20 psi running 9.2's here at 5800 feet elevation, but it depends on your power expectations, and your chassis setup, at that speed a parachute and 10 point cage is required, along with sfi bell housing and clutch, fire suit, 5 point harness, fire supression system, the list is quite extensive.
