LQ4 Twin build ? Hello everyone ! I have been a member here for a while, here is my build, later this year or next, Im' collecting parts.
Parts in and driving ,1972 chevelle T56 magnum, Z06 clutch, Quicktime bell , 3.55 gears, 05 LQ4 bone stock never opened yet, stock hp rw 255/275 TQ thru a 12bolt. 100% fun street car
Parts to go in I have 2 AGP S256 T3 .63 turbos,
Trick flow 216/220 560, LS9 gaskets, Arp head bolts, 1218 pacs, Plan on buying 80 pound SD, wastegates, Bov and intercooler. I want 6psi low boost and 11psi or a tad lower under high boost, Pistons stock gap(I dont plan on going in the motor)should I run meth ? All I want is around 500 hp (less is fine) and 600hp on high.(upgrade fuel system) I know that' more than what I need for non mini tub. I have high hp street sportbikes so Im' not looking for a 800 1100 hp car. Just want to have fun. Does my combo sound
good ?

why twins for 500whp?
seems like a waste of money for the goal
very easily attainable with room to grow for much less $$ if you do it denmah style

I already have both turbos, I've read all the post about sloppy mechanic, great stuff, I like the the twin look better, a extra turbo and wastegate is cool, a extra 1k. And going from 255 hp to 600 hp or a tad more sounds good to me, I don' want a drag car for the street, I figure $4500 total and I should be good, with way more room to turn it up if I wanted to, I will put meth on it to stay cool. Build a NA LS motor and it will cost more for less.
