If I could do it all over again I would probably go with a big single. I like the twins and all but a single setup would just be so much easier.
Gauges are in:
Now I need to figure out everything I need for a 5 lug swap and new brakes.

Here's a lil update:
Turbo kit is done. Everything on the intercooler is v-banded and I only need 3 couplers. One from each compressor and one from the intercooler to the TB.
Shouldnt have any issues with blowing off any couplers. Wastegates where relocated and will dump into the atmosphere instead of back into the dp's.
New motor/heads came in awhile back.
Specs:
ERL LS2 SUPERDECK I Short block
374ci 9.5:1
Compstar crank (3.625)
Forged Compstar rods (6.2)
Wiseco forged pistons (4.070)
Darton premium sleeves
All ARP hardware including 1/2 head studs/mains
SIX bolt conversion
Coated CLEVITE bearings throughout.
KATECH C5R Timing chain and Katech Oil pump+spring
O-ringed
Heads:
Performance Induction LXR heads
245cc runners with 68cc combustion chambers
Receiver groove for o-ring
Now I just need to figure out what cam would work best.

One of my buddys once said "Twins are cool but Twice as expensive and Twice the head ache." I totally agree with him at this point.
I saw ur car out at Tx2k12, I was a bit envious that urs came together as quickly as it did.
I should have a good update on this thing here in a few weeks, we'll see.
