<BR>Unless you going racing, no need for a twin set up. You can go way faster
<BR>then the oem vette chassis was ever meant to go, with a single. You'll get

<BR> Agreed. Twin is way to much. But much more easier than plumbing one turbo
<BR>on a V8 in my opinion. I plan on running very very small Turbos. Like off a
<BR>1.8L 4 cyl. or smaller stock vehicle. This is more of a curiosity
<BR>experonment then a race car. I want super fast spooling as i plan to make
<BR>this a torque monster and plan on no more then 6000rpm rev limit, to optimize
<BR>the characteristics of the L98's TPI power band. I wish to achieve around
<BR>500hp ATRW for nothing more then just enuff rump to smoke C5's and run in the
<BR>11 sec or so mark.

<BR> I have done alot with engines but never like this, and thats why im on
<BR>this list. Trying to not only learn how to tune ECM's (anyone have Dia Com 4
<BR>sale??) but to convert NA ECM's to work with Forced Induction and NOS
<BR>systems...
