twin turbo 5.0?!
To the guy who asked why turbo and not supercharger:
Variable boost if needed (s**tty gas, example).
Peak boost is maintained, and is not parabolic like a roots or centrifugal.
More effeciency, which means more power.
Within the peak horsepower number of centrifugal, and an ungodly amount of midrange power and torque.
Did I mention the massive amount of extra power available?

You wont have lag if your running the right size turbo unit. Thats the advantage of using a twin turbo setup, hou can run two smaller turbos instead of one big one, get the boost of a big one with the midrange and no lag of a smaller unit. A properly sized turbo will act just like a centrifugal supercharger, but instead of the supercharger needing 75 engine hp to run it the turbo might rob 15 because of the exhaust restriction. Thats why turbochargers almost always make more hp with the same amount of boost.<edited><editID>mdvaldosta</editID><editDate>37909.4392708333</editDate></edited>

Thanks for the infoI finally understand a little bit about those little buggers.If the results are that drastic the cost must be silly. I have a 99 3.8 and I'm gonna hold on to it for a couple of years, other priorities right now, I'm just thinkin about some different options. </P>
