Default new around turbos....opinion.

is it possible?
i know most of you will say save up for sts or trick. but my budget is
low,but im willing to try something new.
Imean i know"you get what you pay for"
but are these turbos capable of creating 4-6 psi on a 4.8?
how about twins?

You would still need a lot to get that kit to work. I have a new intercooled kit I'm selling at a discount cuz I need it gone that I'd let go for 3650 shipped
