Twins selection Hey guys, looking at doing a twin turbo setup in my car, wanting to hit 800-1000 rwhp on pump/race mix with meth injection.
I plan on building a forged 408, or maybe keeping my 376 and forging it... What's your guys opinion?
I'm trying to figure out a good turbo tho. I'm looking at Garrett gtx3071r or gtx3076r, yes they're pricey, but I'll be doing this project over a couple years so I'm not sticking to a firm budget.
The car will be a weekend warrior, not an all out dragster so street ability is what's important to me.
Any suggestions or comments are welcome.
Thanks in advance

I was worried the 3582 would be laggy, more reading looks like the 3582 .8 ar spools pretty quick on a large motor.
Anybody have dimensions of the unit so I can get an idea of where things will fit?
And good intercooler? Looking for 2 inlets - 2 outlets? I'm a metal fabricator, so I might have to make my own.

Using Garret's boost advisor, the GTX3076s look closer to what I want as far as where they spool. The 3582 is really close to the surge line at 3800 rpm, which is about where I want to start boosting. I want quick spool over high hp
The precision turbos are nice but they almost twice the price. I went with a bigger wheel and a smaller A/R.
