Default a/r ratio for remote mounts

i am trying to find a good a/r ratio for a twin turbo remote mount setup.
it will be a 347 cid al block, 9:1 cr, arp studs everywhere, single plane 4 barrel intake (blow-thru carb or mfi converted), possibly afr heads, possibly 2002 ls6 cam, long tube headers, 3 inch dual exhaust with dr. gas x-pipe to turbos.

as crazy as it sounds, i actually want a little lag so it wont blow the tires off on the street. spool @ 3000-3500 rpmin a 2800 pound car with a 50/50 f/r weight ratio. i want to hit the converter before it sees boost.

all suggestions are welcomed

kevin

i figure since the gasses are cooler way back there the a/r can be choked down some.

sounds like a perfect place for my gt-80r to go.. happens to be for sale. .96 a/r

pics in sig pm me if interested or hit the for sale post
