We finished our preliminary low boost testing yesterday (8 PSI), and I was able to take it out for a little drive after that. Zero problems, drives awesome! I am going to drive the truck some more and we will be getting an electronic boost controller to work with the solenoids on the turbos very soon to crank it up.
Again, this is only at 8PSI on a stock 5.3 engine with a cam and meth!!

Damn thats sweet. You may have to do a writeup or a quick blurb on the comparison between the whipple setup and twins, but IMO the track times comparing will be pretty cool.

Just got the electronic boost controller installed today, I plan to bring it up to the same as I had my Whipple set to which is about 17 psi so I have a good comparison. Hoping to get it on the dyno tomorrow to crank up the boost and see what it does.

We finished the high boost testing today, I wanted it to be exactly the same boost as my Whipple set up which was 17 psi, here is a dyno video and then dyno graph pic at 17 psi:
