Default small cubes and twins

hi guys, i have been looking around and i haven't seen much people use the small CI and twin turbo route and it got me thinking. i am looking at a roller at the moment and i want to go FI with it but i also want something a little different too. So i want to hear your thoughts on this setup, i am planing to use 5.3 block with the full erl treatment and a forged stock stroke crank, all pro heads, turbo spec cam, a fast intake (maybe). now for the turbos i was thinking 2 of those sweet new BW S400 series with the billet wheels from the good doctor should do the trick.

i just looked at erl website the smallest bore i seen was 4.125 so i'd guess this would make it in the 330+ CI range ?

The 4.125" bore opens up your head choices to allow it to breathe and keep the stroke short for smaller cubes.

I have heard of some guys using the 4.8 crank in a 6.0 block and twisting them 9k n/a. I think this is the setup I am going to look at for my forged motor when the stocker goes boom.

Problem with that combo is you cant find pistons for that stroke.
