holy crap t74s with .81 ar, id think that would take for ever to spool.
for an engine your size id start out with a .69 AR hot side mostl likely a T61-T66 turbo
until you are trying to hit 1500 horses or so then you can move up to two t74s or t76s

id think a T88 would work well for you also, maybe a T91 if you want to make some heavy power.

Id like to see how you are able to fit those T74's underneath incon style. can you get some kind of pics.

I'd like to see a picture myself

I'll have some mounting point pics next week for the turbos. I'm going to see how the T74 works before making anymore decisions on whether to downsize or not. If it does spool fast, it'll probably make stupid power
