well, i searched and couldnt find much on putting a turbo on a tbi engine...i know most of it will be the same...need some gas air mods and stuff...but how do you connect the thing to the intake? who makes a kit or has some pics of how they did it? also...in addition to, say, a tbi spacer...injector spacer/bigger injectors, and i guess a chip or something..what else is needed?
this summer...me and my friend with his 2004 and my 89 we are gonna tackle this project

I think Banks has a twin turbo kit for the SBC but I don't know if its for TBI but you can at least get some ideas from it. If I wasn't feeling so lazy right now I would try to find a link for you. I am also thinking I saw pics of a home made twin turbo kit that one of the members has made. I think the hardest part will be making the headers so you can bolt on a turbo and figuring out how to pipe the boost into the intake.

nah...im gonna take the easy rout and stick it under like them sts setups...or get headers that already have the manifold thing on it...but prolly just stick it under there

Just one big turbo then? That would be easier but two would look cooler. Maybe this will give you some ideas. http://www.bankspower.com/twin-turbo-products.cfm
