From what I am hearing from other members is that going with a turbo is the best way to go. Can we make it a Twin turbo ? Is that even better ?

Good luck. It's going to cost you a ton of money. You can't just bolt two turbos on and call it a day. I'll let the others get into that though.Red 95 Trans Am: M6, Moroso CAI, Magnaflow, Spohn sway bars, back to life as of 2/15/10!!!
SOLD- Kinda miss it
94 Del Sol VTEC: 27 city/ 33 highway, knee deep in slowness
SOLD- Good riddance!
2006 Ford Fusion: 2.3, 5 speed, could run 15lbs of boost with a 150 shot and it'd still be slow

TT would be better but its, as the guy above me said, not easy at all. Its alot more plumbing and alteration of parts and brackets and stuff like that its not easy to do unless you have alot of money to spend. Id still get a supercharger.[COLOR=Navy]2000 Navy Blue Trans Am, T Tops, Automatic, Ram Air, Slp 85mm Mas, Air Lid, Smooth bellow, Hooker 1.75 Lt's, ORY, LM1, Air/EGR delete, Throttle body coolant bypass.

Yes, I also agree...and the temp under your hood would be rediculously high, unless you move stuff around well enough to keep cool air comming in. And as previous people have said, it wouldn't be easy, with our engine compartments being tight as they are.
BUT....if you can do it, my hat goes off to you!!! It would be pretty sweet to see a LT1-TT rollin' around the streets

Slightly off topic unless the rear mounted turbo is a consideration. Isn't there a new NHRA rule that a turbo must be mounted under the hood?'95 Trans Am - A4, LE2 heads, LE1 cam, 1.6 ProMags, Comp R's, AS&M CAI, AS&M 54mm, MAC midlengths, Random Tech. cat, Borla cat back, PCMforless, Vigilante 2800, 3.73's, BMR LCAs/panhard/shock tower brace
