Default Select Turbo Size

Lets say 350ci redline of say 6000rpm.

Thats 516cfm (at 85% VE)
Say 8lbs of boost. Pressure Ratio of 1.55.
So at 8psi would need 800cfm.

So what turbo would work well with this?

A T76 would fall directly on the 70% efficiency line.

Now in regards to determining what you would use for twins how would you go about selecting those?
Would it be half the airflow but the same pressure ratio?
So ~30lbs/min at 1.55 PR?

A Y2K T-80 would fall into 70% island.

I looked into twin T61 and they seem they would work great anywhere from 6psi up to 20psi.
