just trying to get a feel for how many people are running twin turbos on 5.0's. im trying to do some extra r&d and see what some similarly built cars are running for power and track times in different elevations. my setup consists of 273i 280e lunati cam. world windsor jr heads, srp low comp pistons, trick flow intake, msd blaster coil, bigger throttle body and cai. the turbo system is a twin setup from xs power (gay company i know).

i picked up the turbo kit cheap from a buddy who decided to switch to a nitrous setup so i picket it up for 500 bucks. the shitty thing is that xs power has seemingly no customer service or knowledge as i cannot find out a single thing about these turbos. although they look like knockoff garrett internaly wastegated 44 trims.

I would think twice about putting on any turbos if you are unsure of the company support. STS has a kit, expensive, but there is alot of engineering that needs to addressed before they will work safely. Crankcase pressure, for instance. You need some way to control those turbos. Also, whether you turbo or supercharge, it's a quick death to your engine should something break. Engines hate eating metal parts.
