That LS2 of NRE's is MILD. NRE's 408ci TT makes 1,500 hp. He's doing a 2,300 TT LSX 454ci.

F-Bomb did crash, but it was just a scrape and small dent on the side I think. It wasn't a crash, crash. He slid into something. There's a video of it.

I need to start from scratch because I need it to be a 100% street car. Isn't yours a strict drag engine? Twin turbos in the front corners seems like something to research.

Iron 422ci might be the winner for me.

Our smaller thumper series should.....the larger full frame thumpers would require cutting the frame under the battery and dropping the turbo further down.

Which turbo would you recommend for TWINS with a 422ci iron LSX?

To be installed in the front two corners than?

When will the smaller thumpers be available and what HP can be attained on a 422ci with twins?

LOL not necessarily,you're going to need what I have or better to make 1500rwhp.I'm no engine builder but I think you'd need twin GT47 88's to make the power you want.

Not set on anything....I just require A/C.

I heard single turbos have lag and twins vertually eliminate lag because they are smaller and spin up quicker. If I can have a properly matched single where it'll spin up and eliminate lag and not just hit hard all of a sudden on me, I'd do it. Whatever works and is matched perfectly to my cubic inches. I will build whatever cube engine to fit whatever TT or single T set-up. And I want AT LEAST 1,300 RWHP, 1,500 RWHP would be nice. LSX iron block will be the platform.

I should just use what NRE used on his 1,500 hp 408ci he built for Hot Rod magazine that did the 1,500 mile trip stopping at 5 1/4 mile drag strips along the way 300 miles apart.......with no break downs.

But I gotta keep A/C.

I don't know, I didn't go. Was one of his cars there? He's got a few videos of his 7 second drag cars that drive on the street though.
