Default Good Turbo set-up for 5.7L???

Could you guys tell me what parts i need to change for what im wanting to do-
550 to 600hp-
Good spool time- about 15psi on 5.7L -
Reliable also... (Daily boost will only be like 4 to 6psi...)


Set up-
Garret T70 T4 turbo- (T3 .70 A/R) Or should i go w/ a T4???
Turbosmart Type-2 Vee BOV
Turbosmart Pro-gate 48 wastegate
Intercooler OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS
TurboXS dual stage MBC
Turbosmart Pneumatic fuel cut defender-
Vortech FMU
Warlbro 255lph fuel pump + MSD inline electric fuel pump

Please add to or edit the parts as you see fit- Remember- 5.7L 550 to 600hp... 15psi

Trying to keep stock cam- I will be redoing the valve train though- valve springs/ valves/ retainers/ seals/ 1.6 rollers/ port&polish...) if that makes a difference...)

well you say you are looking for a quick spool-up which you definitely get with a twin set up and the HP you want is absolutely going to bet met and most likely exceeded with the kit. I would look at them just for $h*ts and giggles. Its free to read up on them.

If you're building a kit yourself - have you looked at turbonetics?
T-66 - Racegate Wastegate - Godzilla BPV/BOV - Spearco Intercooler (ofcourse there's less expensive that's just as good, just stickin with the theme ) That's a pretty good combo too.
