this is the key in my opinion!!!
We manufacture a lot of parts for the ford gt supercars and they regularly twin turbo those cars and reach horsepower levels in excess of 1,000 horsepower. One guy just got the twin turbo kit installed on his get and he put it best...1000 horsepower is kinda like having an 18 inch member. Sure it's cool to brag about but you can't really use all of it!
One thing to consider is over all performance and what you plan on doing with the car. I plan on writing a detailed explanation of what I mean by that tomorrow.

What I dont understand is one thing....if we can make 6-8psi EASILY on a supercharger and that is the limit of the stock block, what the hell is the point of getting a turbo charger at this point. Unless you build the block, then you aren't going to make any more power than any supercharger will.
To be honest with you guys, I think a TT setup is pointless unless you're going for 700whp+ and for that you will definitely need a built motor.
Also find it really funny that everyone who is technically inclined and have lots of driving experience aren't considering a TT and are aiming for 450-500whp, while the folks who are more into aesthetics need 600whp+ TT kits for some reason. I'm not sure they know how unusable that amount of power is... I mean not that I dont think " I spin tires in 4th" isnt cool.
