Althought a twin turbo on our motors wouldnt last long at all, unless you run 4-5lbs of boost... I rather do the Supercharger, plus supercharger whine ftw...

Gene tuner would be sickkk for your car, will make world of difference!

Hmmm... Why wouldn't a twin turbo last long? If you ran an intercooler, I would think you should be able to get 10-12 lbs of boost.
