Some people use the stock manifolds and flip them to mount the turbos up front also. Most of the time you'll make more power with one decent size turbo though.

You better be prepared to spend a bunch of money on the rest of the motor if you want to have it last more than a couple runs and really make good power.
Especially the bottom end with a higher end quality crank and rod set (balanced of course) and forged pistons.
You'll want better flowing heads and a cam that works well with a turbo motor along with supporting parts like roller rockers.
And of course an intake and injectors that can mix enough gas with all that extra air.
It's not going to be cheap is the bottom line.
