sounds fun it sounds like the same thing i want to do but i am not sure what turbos i want to use yet. I have heard of a guy that had a stock looking notch back that was for sale and it had Twin Turbos and he ran 9's in the quarter mile. That is just crazy. You would be the fastest car on the street for sure around my parts. i have to rebuild my tranny and put in the cam and heads though before. Sounds good i hope all goes well with your project. Tell us how it goes i would love to hear so i know some tips on what i should do when i do my setup.

Does AFR make a 215 head? I thought it went from 205 to 225?

Sounds like a good plan, but I dont know where you gonna get all that for 9000 bucks, unless u gettin some stuff used. Also...a T76 would mean its 76mm right? That seems pretty damn big for a twin turbo setup to just be putting out 11PSI. I think you can do the same with smaller, and itd be more efficient/less spool time. Most of the twin setups ive seen use T44s like the ones on LOVEMY88GT's link. But either way, good luck. Sounds like a fun project.
