Automatic or manual? Sorry if this sounds stupid but is it running 6psi for each turbo for a total of 12 or 12 psi for each?

This is about the 4th build I've read about, and still haven't heard of one detonation (knock on wood). The rods are very thick and I can't believe a car with 11:1 compression could handle this much boost reliably, ESPECIALLY with a 7500rpm rev limit.

Looks like its manual from the pic.
Very nice and clean setup. I wish I can be financially irresponsible . . .

I'm going to assume you need to pull the motor to do this type of setup?

Is this on 93 octane?
Was the fuel injector upgrade necessary or just for convenience, if more power is needed?
Also, any idea as to how much power the stock internals of the VQ can hold?
