900-1200WHP Boost help, 333CID
5.4 Iron LSX (LQ4 block, 4.8 Crank). Current in the collection are LS3 heads, TSP rockers, block, Lunati 6.300 rods, arp main kit, custom turbo cam, LSA oil pump, timing set and 1/2 head studs.
Blocks being machined now and we will place the order for the pistons based on the specs of the block (naturally). Pistons will be RaceTech and then coated by swain tech. Target compression with my heads will be 9.1.
I dont live in corn country so I cant e85
so 93 octane with boostane it is.The question:
What are the 1000WHP gas guys running for turbos. I am thinking something similar to a pair of 6468's T4's 1.10ar or similar. Perhaps some of the smaller BWS300 line to keep that cost down, The plan is a China special pair of ebay turbo manifold, but jet hotted. Or should I just single it and be done. Would like to be hard into boostunder 4Krpm

Asking for 1200hp potential on a smaller motor and hard boost under 4k is asking a lot from cheap turbos.
A pair of BW SXE362's might be close, or if the lower rpm really is more important, a pair of the SXE257's might be better with perhaps a little less top end ability

The high compression version was the 2nd phase of the build. He did a low compression smaller cam version too.
His build gives you a great idea of what works, and answers your turbo sizing questions.
Sounds like you are trying to save $. You likely would have less into a large good quality BW like an S400 rather than going with a set of China ebay twins I would think.
Unlike the 240 there is room under stock hoods for more activites. about 6 inches of forward space.
As for the stroke I'm gonna run the short, cost more year, but it will be fun in the revs
