Custom Twin Turbo set up?
Ok this is more like what i plan on doing years from now. But I was recently looking at what i have to my reach that i should take advantage of. My uncle has a pipe bending machine in his hotrod shop. How much would the piping cost? intercooler, 2 good sized turbos, and custom work like headers and all. Lets say we do the install all our selfs. Welding and all. Just of course get a good tune and all from the real pros.

Depends on if you want to go junkyard or all new. I will tell you from experience that going junkyard can save you a TON of money. And from junkyard I also include Ebay. Take your time to figure out a rough idea of what you want and cruise the 'bay and wait for what you need. Do you want twins just to say you have twins or would a single work as well? There are T70 on Ebay all the time, that would plenty of turbo for your motor at this point. A single turbo would easier to plumb in as well.
Thats my opinion, but I know some people don't like using used parts. I obviously don't buy used everything, but I have saved a ton buying some big pieces that aren't brand new. If your budget can support brand new then by all means go for it.
