Please reply if you have ideas for me

what year is your car....as for what u bought thats a good few mods, i'd get T-loc, and exuast if u dont have it already. after exaust and t-loc i'd suggest cam gears and headers, big hp gain.

as for the turbos, i'd go either to TMA, they make TMA twin turbo sets for V6's or http://www.rpmoutlet.com/musv6ati.htm

here is the TMA turbo site... http://www.tmaturbo.com/
i highly recommend the TMA twin turbo set, its seems the best, i dont have it but its seems good and ive seen a video from someone who got their TT there

by the way TMA shows ppl who've gotten the turbo on their website, most look lik they're running mid and low 12's with 320-350hp, so thats compareable to a cobra but much more money saved on the v6 rather then buyin a cobra

at tma you can talk to him he is making a twin turbo kit. Turbos are expensive though. I'm building my car up before I slap two GT28RS dual ball bearing garrett turbos under my hood. A single turbo is also efficient. Joshua Childs made 503 hp and 512 tq. Yea his car was bored out to a 4.2L but still thats a v6 making 500+ hp. I have an automatic also, but I'm gonna try to swap that out for a 6 speed tranny. I'm tryin to find out if it will fit or not.

a well built and tuned auto can be better and more consistent than a 5,6-speed.

full bolt ons, a cam, p&p heads and a sheet metal intake will get you over 260-275 rwhp n/a, then add forced induction and you are safe to 350-400rwtq on a locked 7.5" rear until you need the 8.8 or larger axles.

Dude I would say do bolt ons first. What good is a twin turbo car if your car can't handle what the turbos are doin. I'm doin my best to build the best n/a car I can, and then put twin turbos on there.

Do these guys sell a twin turbo kit or is it a single turbo? I saw the vids and see twins on one but the kit they sell shows one.

are you talking about TMA, if so he built a twin-turbo setup for J's car, you gotta e-mail Andy to get his prices, here are some vids of it:
