Twin BWS360 for my build?
Twin BWS360 for my build? I have changed my plans from twins to a single and back more than I change my underwear. Decided recently I have to go with a single for budget reasons, but found a pair of used twin BW's for a great price locally, and just want to see what kind of numbers they could potentially make at 20 - 25 PSI. He has multiple housings that he's willing to put them in, options are either .83 1.00 and 1.10. Here are the specs on them:
T4
60mm compressor
83mm exducer
67.5mm turbine
76mm inducer
Going into my GTO
goals are 8.5 - 9.0 or roughly 1000 WHP
Iron 347
10.5:1
E85
241's with a valve job
cam from Martin
LS6 intake stock TB
built valve train
TH400
Any input is appreciated

I keep hearing how great they are, that's why if I do twins I want to stick with BW's. I just originally planned for larger ones than these, but may not be able to pass them up for the price like I said. Ideally if my stock heads with ARP studs can push more than 20 PSI I will be happy, but not surprised if I start pushing water past that.
Feeling pretty confident now about the condition of these units, I found out that the guy selling them rebuilds turbos for a living, and he just rebuilt them with all new seals, hardware etc.
Well ****, the guy sold them but has another set of S359 available with the following specs:
BW S359 T4 (59mm compressor 80mm exducer/ 67.5mm turbine 76mm inducer)
Again, available housings are .83 1.0 or 1.10 does my goal still sound possible with the small difference of 1mm on the compressor wheel? Im leaning toward the 1.0 or 1.10 housing.

Those are the pair I originally wanted, but could not make my budget work with them. Im considering these smaller used ones because they are a great deal from a guy who just rebuilt them.
