Hey Nifty,
That Twin Turbo link of yours made my mouth water...:spook
however, there are rather large differences in a TT setup that will give you 750 HP at 9.5 lbs of boost (For approx. $44K additional) vs a SC setup that will give you 560 HP at 5.5 lbs of boost (For $10K, including the new hood.) First, the number of parts to install, the necessary "building" of the motor, the return to Stock would be very unlikely if it ever became necessary, and then there is the cost...;30 you could buy another "companion" C6 with the money.
The driveability and longevity, as I see it, are there with the SC....no turbo lag, immediate grunt off the line, and about $35K left in your bank account...:22 Thanks for the great link, nifty.

i hear ya........ive only ever been for a short blast in a blown car ...and it was a vette.a 75 as per avatar pic...it went good..but for shear speed and throw you back in the seat oooooohhhhmyyyyyygaaawwwddd power,nothing has come close to my nieces b/f's very modified wrx... this thing is still the quickest thing i ever been in...period...and ive been in a 70 LS5 vette,the blown 75 a BB74, an 85 vette,and borrowed my brothers mates 2003 monaro ( ponty GTO for americans) for a few hrs last weekend....munro went real well. LS1 6speed etc but the wrx ate it...now im not a tall guy 5'8"...85kg,but i have a solid build and that rex was uncomfortable as hell for me.
