Doesn't really matter as long as you run low levels of boost and have plenty of other supporting mods.

Going to want a relatively smaller turbo as well to spool up twins.
IMO 76 single would treat you right and also be alot less of a headache.

literally read this: 2012 Sierra RCSB 5.3 build thread @ New Era Performance PART 2 - PerformanceTrucks.net Forums
at 8psi put down 545 on stock 5.3 motor, 17psi put down 734hp. turbo's are borg warner EFR 76/70 turbos with high flow internal wastegates and bypass (recirculation) valves built in. they are putting this kit together to sell to customers im sure with different turbo setups. IMO you better have at least 8-10 grand set aside for the kit as well as supporting mods but most importantly a good reputable tuner.
for the gains in twin turbo's you are better off if you are going to DD the thing to save about 1/2 the price in just the kit and go with a trick performance or kb racing 70mm kits. both have been proven to put down 500whp and you can get into them cheaper than you would a set of twins.

so a pair of twin 81s would be fine? :smh:
twins spool faster if your trying to do rolling street racing or road racing, a big single is fine for drag racing. you wont see a difference in power with twins, but you will see a difference in price!
DNW turbos with internal wastegates or recirculation valves or anything fucking weird like that
DFW watercooled turbo
Common sense would tell you to not put a turbo that big

I saw them all this morning, was going to respond with something smart...but realized it was too early for that. Glad someone else picked up the slack!
