i was thinking about he TTi X package for the vettes, because of its reliability, but for the most twin turbo kits for the vettes the price get astronomical

Id say it depends on what your gonna do with it.

If its a DD and you want something that is not too high maintainence, id just spray it for simplicity and cost effectivness.


If you plan on making money off of it, id s/c it.

Either way, you dont need a 427 to make tons of power.

my 408/turbo setup made more then I asked for on pump gas and Im completely satisfied with it.

I just wasnt expecting as much maintainence on it as I initially thought.

stick with the 408 and 300 shot, you'll come out ahead that way.
