What size twin turbo? Im looking forward for your opinion on which turbo size would be best for my aplication. I have a ls1, 243 heads, ls6 intake and Im gona get a turbo cam yet. But Im at altitude 8-10k da, so I need something that doesn’t run out of steam. My goal is to make 1000whp corrected.
If you are dead set on doing twins, good luck,, but your goals will be easier and far cheaper to achieve with a big single. Twins have a tiny spool advantage and a massive plumbing disadvantage. Sometimes packaging takes the choice out of your hands, but otherwise you should go with the easier plumbing.

Im not gona build the kit myself, I have a fbody ws6 01, and its gona be a twin turbo huron speed, the big turbo kit costs just as much but I need the tiny bit of spooling advantage at altitude because you have no idea how much it sucks to have a turbo and not being able to spool it right. Plus it takes 2 wastegates in the single as well, needs the radiator stand up so all said and done with a bigger turbo cost vs 2 smaller ones it goes out to same price, but what you said about all the pipes thats something Im not looking forward to lol

arguably of all of those the 67mm Precisions will move the most air.
Garrett...overpriced and underperform
BW...there is a much wider range of units than just what you've stated to choose from...why not something more comparable to the Precision for size ?
And poor heads, no mention of trans, fuel, etc etc and hoping for 1k at altitude ? And is the LS1 otherwise stock ?
I think you may need to consider more than just turbos and a cam here.
