Rx's '93 turbo's in a boat

I recently completed putting a single turbo in my '93 rx7 (Apexi rx6 IHI). Now I have a set of twin turbo's that I'm contemplating putting in my ski boat (350 Murcrusier, basically a carb. chevy 350). Is this a horrible idea? What is everyones thought on this?

Thanks!

Sounds like a pisser idea. Who are you going to get to fabricate the exhaust and intake manifold and if you could find someone how much do you think they would charge?

Are you saying bad idea?? I would think about machining some of the parts myself and maybe a local shop do some of the tube bending. Do you think it would be a huge unworthwhile task. The only reason I bring it up is the motor is very exposed and has low compression, seems like a good candidate.

It sounds like a blast if you have the time to do all the R&D to make it work and enough time to do all the fabrication work. It will be a big project.

You could probably rig up a nice water to air intercooler too!
