Default Going Turbo - need help

So I have a 2001 camaro SS, LS1 346ci V8 6speed, planning to go Turbo. Which turbo setup should I go with? I was thinking STS because theyre kits are "rearmounted" and SMOG legal/emissions free. I want a twin turbo setup only because I think it works better and faster than a single turbo. Who should I go with?

Also because I will be putting out so much torque, which Twin-disc CLUTCH kit and which REAR-END should I go with?

Thanks

Search is your friend. Or just spend a few hours going page by page reading the FI section. That being said STS is craptastic. I had one on my Avalanche and it shat oil all over my engine bay when the abortion of a PCV system failed. If you want a rearmount find a local shop and have them do one. They aren't rocket science and it would be WAY cheaper than a cheesy STS kit.

Cliff note's:

Do a front mounted system.

When sized properly twin's and singles will work very similar.

A twin disk would be a good investment, I personally have had good luck with Spec from 600rwhp to 1000 rwhp.

I would do a Moser 9'' for the rear.
