My turbos seem to leak a tiny bit of oil into the intake piping every so often (not enough to measure, but enough to see in the charge pipe) so I might just move to new 850bbs (though there is no guarantee that new turbos won't fail or leak either).

They are better than I thought we only tuned the car to about 5000rpm before I had issues but at 18-19psi (showed 15psi on the dynos gauge??) I put down 575whp and 620ft/lbs. I will see if i can get much more when we finish the tune. I was going to try race gas and more boost but I think we will just finish the pump gas tune and a meth tune for this year, If anything happens again I would be sad

so I am going to keep things as safe as possible for at least a year so i can enjoy the car.

yes, JWT TT kits put out great #'s and with a good tune are reliable for daily driving

I said in another thread if I were to build an engine again the GTM basic long block for $6000 seems like a good deal. Or contact Forged I don't see a long block on the web page any more but it seems lots of guys have had success using the S1 long block. The short block is $3500 so I am sure the long block would be in the $6000 range. Add some cams and springs to that and you should be into the 500-600whp range with proper supporting mods.
