    Alright, kinda narrowign my searches. Heres what im considering to get for this build as it slowly develops:

    HOT SIDE
    T76 with .96 AR T4 inlet twin scroll (oiless perferable)
    44mm adjustable Wastgate with 4-7lbs spring
    50mm BOV (i know im an auto but its suppose to be there, so its going there)
    exhaust wrap
    Manual boost control (to keep me from playing with the boost in my car too much LOL)
    Maybe a Spool valve.

    COLD SIDE
    2.5" aluminum piping
    4ply couplers
    T-bolt clamps
    compact intercooler

    OIL
    Twin Mocal (or better) oil pumps (for pushing and pulling)
    B&M Oil cooler with fan
    Some kind of sump tank (2-3 quarts should be good right?)
    oil check valves for in and maybe out of turbo
    Oil Feed and drain lines
    Oil Catch Can

    FUEL
    255 Racetronics fuel pump with hotwire
    60# injectors (mototron/siemens)

    ENGINE
    Hardened 7.4" Pushrods
    yelloterra rocker arms?
    stronger rodbolts (maybe, alittle scared to do that, dont want to mess with the new Kmember)


    ELECTONICS
    3 guage A-pillar pod
    Boost Gauge
    Oil pressure gauge
    Wideband gauge with datalogging capability
    Fuel pressure guage under the hood on the fuel rail
    AND!!!!! (drum roll please) a REALY REALLY good tune (frost to the rescue?)

    anything i missed?

    Im aiming for roughly 500ish HP. rear end is stock and trying to keep i that way but one day when i grow up, maybe a 12bolt.

    If i went that route, id turn my car into an all out BEAST. But for now im sticking to a semi normal street car. Although upgrading the fuel system would be alot simpler lol

    catches oil so it doesn't get into your intake is the short answer.

    ^^ This. The stock LS1 PCV system is notorious for sucking oil at higher rpm's. I just picked up an Elite Engineering catch can from KY Speed. Looks like a sweet unit -- very well designed and manufactured.

    well been doing more research and learning more about turbos and other peoples experience and im thinking Im gonna go with a T76 with a 96. AR with a T$ housing. From what im reading, the T70 with 84 AR with a T3 twin scoll might be too small. I figure i got enough torque downlow (314RWTQ), a higher flowing turbo will not choke the motor as much and make better power later in the band and with a 3200 stall, the trubo will be spooling anyhow. Lag wont be too bad. Besides, i dont drag as much as i drive on the autobahn at high speed

    ive decided to go with the T76. I think it will do me better anyhow. The T3 inlet i think will be a source of restriction.

    I was actually looking at getting a Spool valve eventually. I was going to get a twin scrolled turbo and when the system is complete, simply bolt in the spool valve.
