I'd really like to build a compound TURBO setup, say a T60 or 70 being feed by a PT-88... Got a few ideas... Just sayin... 
I'm thinking this could make a 900ish, fast spooling setup.

All the setups would be bad *** IMO depending on when you want the power to come in etc just like others ssaid..
Good luck getting traction under 80mph in a 2wd rcsb tho lol, I spin pretty good now from a 50-60mph punch and thats with just under 450 to the ground lol. So good luck with traction, But I cant wait to see this Richard i know it will be a beast..

Well, here's my thinking... This would be WAY cool and NO ONE has anything like it on a gas truck that I've seen. So, a MP T70 with re-flow front cover and T4 .96 mounted first. It would get all the exhaust first and then the compressor would feed the intercooler/motor. Then, the exhaust from it would exit and them be piped into a the PT-88 turbine housing (either T4 or T6). There would also be a 60mm waste gate before the MP T70 to by pass it into the inlet of the PT-88 once you hit 4-5psi of boost, so the MP T70 is not a big restriction. You would keep your original 50mm waste gate in the cross over for final boost control.
For the cold side the PT-88 would feed into the mouth of the MP T70 w/reflow and then it would exit to the intercooler/motor. I like the reflow cover for the shape and compressor surge hole that would actually help with passing more air around the compressor when once the PT-88 is lit.
Now keep this in mind. This setup is NOT the most efficient for out of boost power or max power. You'll loose on both ends of that, but what it should do is create a faster spooling big turbo setup. I've seen a guy running a setup like this on a 4 banger on Yellowbullet.com with a big *** S400 on his 4 banger. He said it worked awesome almost as good as when he used N2O to spool that big turbo on his little motor, but he was also running 40psi of boost.

Im not really shooting for a time goal, just something rediculous and fun to drive...
...to be honest, I didnt really like how the power cam on with the turbo. Maybe it was because my truck was so heavy, or the cam wasnt a good match or what, but it just wasnt as fun as the blower setup I had before that made considerably less power.
Since this isnt a DD so I could see myself using a larger stall (3400ish I guess), and a bigger cam.

I know what you mean. Even tho my whipple made 100hp less than the turbo it was more fun to drive on the street. But i think my mp76 is a little too big for my 5.3L.
