Well, what parts do you have for the car currently? A good TT set up is gonna run you 10k+.

10k is being very modest. I'd expect closer to 20k.

Then again for a twin turbo setup, the OP has fairly low goals...

I threw out 10k just in case he has anything else already, like built tranny, built rear ect. I wouldn't try to TT my car from stock with only 10k lol

~Edit~ also true about the power thing, but then again, 700hp on a correctly built TT set up I would guess would be pretty reliable.

Which Eagle crank did you have? Cast or forged? If you want to do it correctly, plan on spending some serious cash. ALL forged bottom end, H-beam rods, forged pistons, etc. Also plan on spending the time and money having the thing balanced. It's definitely possible, but like what was already mentioned, you'll need some serious drive line mods. If your A4 i'd consider swapping in a fully max built 4L80e or TH400 and at least a 12 bolt rear.

Get a Howards Tracksmart, Compstar or Lunati 4340 forged crank and a set of CP 2618 forged dished pistons to give you a 9.5:1 scr and a pair of t68 turbonetics turbos. You'll also need minimum 60# injectors I'm not sure where to get the turbo headers from, I hope this helps some. Also get some ARP 2000 or L19 rod bolts for your H beam rods.

If you're commited to boost there's NO WAY I would do a twin turbo setup for that modest of a power goal. YSI super charged all the way. You can make 700+ with a mild short block and 1k plus if you want to spend the coin. Will be easier to manage with the 6 speed too.
