For a dd id go comp turbo oilless t3 6262 .82
All out hp comp oilless t4 6765 ett .68

If u have space and $ u could add a qsv and go up slightly on the ar's

As for the comps if u have the $ they are worth every penny

I just saw that they added entry level turbos with billet compressors for a very good price....

For 1000hp with those cubes you would need an 80mm minimum. As you will need somewhere in the 100lbs/min range at an efficient level.

As for twins, a set of 6265 units from Tnetics or PTE would suit that build easily.
