Default should I?

well I'm thinkin about a duel turbo setup but I'm not too familure with them...I've been told by a friend that because I have 4.10s it would really suck turbo'ing my car but had no reason, could yall explain please. I'm lookin for around 450 hp/tq all together. also are control arms worth the initial slow down? thank yall!

I would think 4.10s wouldnt be bad unless your tracking your car. Around town you will be in gear before most of your boost so traction shouldnt be terrible and if its a problem you can always swap to 3.73s.

Also not sure what your asking about control arms. Most after market control arms should increase launches and decrease your 60' time.

If i had a chance, id twin turbo my car in a heart beat.

I guess I was just confused all together on what control arms did. sorry to confuse ya. so I'd be okay for the most part except when I hammer the gas peddle? would that be just from a dig or any time? would control arms help in this case with 285 rear tires or would ya think the rear is just too aggressive? thanks again!
