So I'm buying a 424w. It is fully forged, Vic jr heads and intake. Anyway it has 12.5 to 1 comp. I want to turbo it so I will put the thickest head gaskets I can find. And I'm thinking twin 57's for a good 800-900 rwhp. Think that is a good goal for the 57s or should I go with bigger turbos. And also who recommends a good kit?

12.5 is pretty high for a turbo build.i would keep it below 10.5:1
im planning a big single kit. 76mm

Yeah whoa 12.5:1 is pretty high for any kind of boost. Unless you're running some reaaal high octane you'll have some real detonation problems
