Just curious, but how reliable would a Twin Turbo setup be?

[Need4Camaro]

Lets say I went everything forged internals, Cam, Heads, everything geared for the lowest possible compression... Maybe bore over alittle bit and add a forged stroker provided the 4.3 came out... (Would a stroker INCREASE compression?? If so then this wouldn't be the way to go would it?)

But lets say I ran low boost, 6 - 8 PSI on a custom twin turbo system... How streetable would that be provided I beefed up everything behind the engine?

Sounds wicked! It should be streetable if you could do it and get it tuned properly. There have been other Twin Turbo performance cars out there, the Dodge M4-S "Wraith" (Chrysler PPG Interceptor, etc.) for example, although what I just listed were one in the same. That kind of performance with a 3.8L Stroked to 4.3L with Twin Turbo's sounds perhaps like a good 400HP car, maybe more than that. All I know is that if you plan on building this beast, I ain't gonna' race you! Oh yeah, a Stroker relies thus on a longer stroke of the piston travel, so you would get more compression because it is compressing a larger volume of space/air, whatever you wanna' call it. Hope this helps.

The only one in existance.

Yeah, sweet ain't it!? I may be a chevy man, but I'd love to own that car. All things being equal, I bet a 3.4L Twin Turbo, forged bottom end, forged internals, performance built would be a mean little b**ch as well.

Awsome, reason I was asking is because I know a guy with a Twin Turbo LS1 as a daily driver putting out over 950 REAR WHEEL HP... Thats over 1,000 to the flywheel and he drives it everyday... Coolest thing is, at idle it just sounds like a Stock LS1... One HELL of a sleeper I must say... So I was wondering what kind of effect a 3.8 would get... How much do you think this would cost? We have alot of room upfront to play with so I'd think Getting the Turbo's themselves in would be no problem... I would def have to run premium correct?

So here's the specs

Twin Turbo's at 6 - 8 PSI.
Cam for Turbo.
P&P / Larger Heads.
4.3L Forged Bottom End.
Forged Diamon Pistons.
Replace all weak links at Crankshaft.
