Default TT questions...

Currently I have PP Stage 3 heads (59cc) with a 230/236 .592/.578 114lsa +2 advanced cam, pacesetter headers to true dual 3in mandrel bent (w/X-pipe) exhaust through an A4 with a Yank SS4000 stall and all of the other normal boltons. Anyway I have been considering building my own twin turbo setup (possibly single turbo). Anyway my questions are...

1) what kind of cam's do turbo's like, aka more lsa or less lsa, more duration etc..

2) How much boost can I safely run on 93 octane with the heads I'm running, I'm assuming an 11.1 compression ratio because of the 59cc combustion chambers....or can I run any boost at this high of a compression.

3) What would you recommend for a fuel system, will an aftermarket 255lph fuel pump be enough???

If I can get the setup built decently and working good then I will probably swap the heads...again...possibly send them back to PP to have the combustion chambers enlarged or just run a set of 6.0L heads. Thanks in advance for any help...
