LPE used that turbo (twin) on their 427 builds. It will max out around 700rwhp and has the potential for high 9's at +140mph if pushed. Low 11's wiil be cake.

I would never install a turbo for low 11's. Too much clap-trap for a goal that is very reasonably attainable otherwise. And, yes, the GT28's are very small for that cid.
