Just my opinion, but if you spend 20K and end up running only 800 RWHP you arn't thinking things thru.
If I was gonna go ALL out, I would definatly go with a 4v setup. Or maybe a 408 stroker swap

My personal opinion is to do a single turbo setup... less parts, and if you know what you are doing, you can make your own kit. Everyone acts like welding is hard to do and are all scared to build their own setup. Want some help? Check out www.boostang.com... Anyway, turbo cars are easy... As long as you get a turbo with the correct compressor map (t70, t72, or t76), 42 lb. injectors, air/water ic, new cams, a lil head work, EGT's on each bank, then a wideband on the downpipe of the turbo, and a custom tune... you can easily make 500 horse on a stock motor, SAFELY. If I remember correctly, 11 psi is a safe number on a stock engine. So go 8 or 10...

That is a misconception... Spoolup only matters because of the A/R on your turbine side of the turbo... If you get a small A/R, you will have very quick spoolup and to make up for the flow, get a very large wastegate... A good example would be a .84 A/R and a 46 mm wastegate for a single setup.

if you are going to spend 20K on your car and not do a 4V(unles you want a 2V motor) you must be "Retarded" you will make sooooo much more hp out of a 4V then a 2V, i sujest you "Think" about this more.
