Well be prepared to spend a lot of money if you're going twin turbo'd. There's no kit's out there so you'll have to find a shop to custom do everything for you. If you're going to do that I'd say hold off on buying the turbo's and see which ones they think would be best with the setup they put together.
That's just my .02 though

well i no that money will be high but do u have a figure and i have a local shop that will prolly do it another thing im wondering is if i do twin turbo it how much power am i lookin to gain??????? after tunning and all

Twin turbo fabrication and install, your looking at probally $5,000+. As per power increase, it all depends on the tune, and the psi your running.

well im only going to do it if its going to be under 6000 if not im droppin an 8 but i really like the 3800 so if i can get it up to 400hp i will keep it so i need atleast a 100 horse gain from this twin turbo install do u think thats possible

wow sounds like fun a single turbo kit for the 3.4 is 3000 if you wanted to know

100 hp is doable, cost your going to get close to the $6000 mark (don't forget if you do a v8 swap it will cost a couple grand typically in misc parts, and your still about the same power)

Remember with a build like that, you will need to rebuild the whole drivetrain and suspension to get the power to the ground. Otherwise its just a dynoqueen.

Welcome to PC.

You should have no problem getting close to 400 with twins.

If you get a really good price- since it doesn't come with anything at all. Honestly if you aren't into doing things yourself I would stay away from having to fabricate stuff. Its a big PITA and unless you can think 5 steps ahead you end up redoing a lot of stuff.

From the sounds of it, I think you would be better off just waiting for someone to sell their kit off their V6 that they have done the fab work for you.

Unless they wreck it, nobody that goes through the trouble to fabricate a kit is gonna sell it typically. I wish the kits were as plentiful as they are for the 8's.
