Default good turbos for a set of twins?

doing an LS1 with 317 heads, 6 speed 3.70 gears and i was looking at these turbos for i feel like it would be a good size and there in my price range.

what do you guys think of them for a build, are they a little too big?

im looking for 600-800rwhp and as fast spool as possible

any other turbo suggestions in this price range that would be a better spool time and still get me in that rwhp range im open for options

thanks!

I would go something smaller than the Lety's. Those have proven to be great turbos, however for your goals we can get you into something that will be more responsive and have no problem meeting your goals. I would look into something more along the lines of a pair of 5858 - 60's. Will spool very quickly for your 6 speed, stock cube set-up, and have no issues meeting the top end of your power goals! We can get you set-up with the very best pricing on something to best suit your needs from any of the major manufacturers if you have a brand preference! Turbonetics, Precision, Comp, etc.
