You would need a built block. I had a built block, and killed it with dual power adders.

On another note, people that got quotes on custom twin turbo configurations were looking at nearly 7k. GG could comment on how much hers cost.

My auto held up to 600ft lbs of tq, 11.1's, 11.0 and a high 10 et. Though it had 3 seasons of abuse and was starting to complain. But its stronger than people think, and what the auto trans can handle is a matter of power, not the type of power adder itself.

well since i dont want to spend up to 7 grand on twins i think i will supercharge it and spend the extra money on more mods( or a down payment on the wifeys new car). Thanks for all the info though. You have all helped me alot.

I would ask GG what she paid, may be less than 7k. Though I think its hilarious how this thread is turning into twin turbo or bust theme. I mean, all of the power adder kits out there will get most people where they want to be. You don't need a tt to hit 300rwhp or more, you don't a tt to hit 13's, 12's, 11's, 10's, or single digits. Its just a different option with a different power band.

I see hype on it, but no tech.

Rygen is right, look on vortech website, they built a v6 pony with a vortech turbo that hit 10's. Any type of power adder on a v6 pony will turn heads, it doesnt need to be a tt.
