We are going for a red and black interior all work done myself and my wife the map pocket will match the lower parts of the door, I just purchased one piece red and black racing seats. I am also in the process of building a custom center console with a ten inch sub where the glove box use to be.

We want to shoot for a mid 600whp twin 16g turbos with supporting mods on an l67. I want the v8 Archie widebody kit and a 10 1/2 rear tire. Everything will be upgraded around it to do it right this is the beginning stay tuned for the progress. I'm shooting for this to be done by the end of this year early next year. But you know how it goes sometimes you start and can't stop. I figured this out with my 600whp Pontiac g5 and many other projects I have built. First fiero I've done but I love these cars.

Guys on this forum have run 10 second 1/4 mile times with a single properly sized turbo. I doubt if twin turbo's will buy you much unless you are going for the worlds record. As V8 Archie would say "How fast do you want to go?"

Single turbo will do everything you want and more. I see that this car is more than just a 600hp racer so the "show" aspect of twin turbo will be fine but not needed.

16g's come in huge variety. What one do you plan to go with? You will really be pushing them to make 600 on the 3800.

Keep in mind Lag is almost non-existent with a torquey 3800. Try out the PTE 6466 turbo. (Still dreaming of this turbo. I really want to see it pushed on a 3800)

I want to do twins because I want to have better corner response but till have high horsepower I have a four cylinder that does 11.3 at 138mph trap speed fwd is a bish. On a gt3076r I'm now upgrading to a presicion 6152. I'm going for roadcoarse more then drag but still want 600 or more and I know a super charger want do that. Thanks for the warm welcomes I'm excited

I guess if you want all your power down low twin turbos might be better but with todays precision ball bearing turbos, those things spool up super quick. Twin turbos in the confines of the small engine compartment might present a very challenging exhaust plumbing job. I guess it can be done by an expert exhaust shop. AFAIK the Eaton Supercharger even a modified engine with the Gen V design and an intercooler maxes out around 400 HP.

Yea supercharges are fun but even whipple chargers, and other after market super chargers on v8s have a hard time doing 600whp. I think a turbo at the crossover and a turbo where the truck is wont be to bad. You should see some of the twin turbo set ups we have installed on v8s like terminator motors in mustangs they are tight.

Twin turbos in reality are meant for production cars...don't waste your time, effort and monies...instead listen to what others are saying here, mostly what you have on the other car will not translate properly here...

BTW I will offer another option, its called pulse turbocharging, build your setup around twin-entry housing and size the turbocharger around this principle. If you are a "corner carver"...then you want a flatter torque curve, i get it...twins can work, with the technological advantage today...it is simply to say you "have twin turbos"...this is all an opinion though...do you :P

If your really destined to do a twin turbo setup, you could look at how I routed mine both under the upper trunk. I have a thread in the construction zone, not updated but the plumbing pictures are there.

Cheers.

Hey man, if you want to go twin Turbo then do it. I myself want to twin supercharge a 3.4DOHC, why? Why hell not? I got all the parts already.

So do what you want to do.

Look forward to seeing your engine build.

Cheers

If you plan on doing a road course fiero the horsepower end is not a factor... its much easier to bolt a mostly stock sc3800 into a fiero and well overpower a fiero's: suspension tires brakes aero cooling etc....

Do a few roadcourse days and youll see that the preception of a good car to use out there is much different from reality when you see a 220hp ss2000 riding your bumper for 2 miles in a 600whp race prepped shelby cobra gt500

perhaps the OP may not be talking a formal roadcourse...but I think many underestimate even 300 whp will do in these cars around a bend....
