Question Fox Body LsX Turbo dilemma...

I'm currently doing a Fox Notch LsX conversion & I having some issues deciding on what turbo to go with...I'm looking/wanting to be in the 1150hp+ range...
I'm new to the turbo scene... Will be running a shot of nos as well & most likely on E85.... Bottom end is forged as well.

Turbos I'm trying o decide between are

Single:
Precision PT88
Precision PT8285

Twin:
Precision 6262
Precision 6266

I have twins.

If I was to do it again I would go big single.

Easier to package and more room to work on or around ****.

Whats the motor combo?

Don't discount the borg warner turbos either. Twin 362 or 366 vs a single s488 would get the job done and probably for a good price.

It will be a 390 all bottom end is forged, 317 heads all done up w/a Vic Jr (injected) intake.. Haven't decided on the spray amount yet but leaning towards a 2 stage (125/200)..

I think I'm going to go w/ the 6266's. was told it would be a lot more streetable and a little easier on equipment... Only thing is it is going to suck is its going to be a tight fit... Good thing is they will spoil a lot quicker and hopefully hit my hp goals...
