Hey guys I have a 6.0 with 243 heads and want to build a turbo setup instead of going naturally aspirated. I have about 10.5:1 compression and want to use two gn turbos. Do I use the stock internal wastegate? What do used GN turbos go for and what are the name of them? I am looking for 600- 675rwhp through stalled auto. Tryin to do this as budget minded as possible.My car is 85 monte carlo ss. I want to run at least mid 10 second 1/4 mile but car will be mainly street driven. I need some input because for the last year I have been suffering form paralysis from analysis.

I think that you would have better success on a GN/TType site with these types of questions.
