Blackbenzz has a very valid point and I agree 100% fueling and tuning with the OEM ECU, will have someone pulling their hair out. I would also like to add plumbing to the list, plain and simple not much room left.
A side note here, many marine engines are compound engines (turbo and supercharger combination) that work quite well the supercharger provides copious amounts of torque at off idle RPMs and the turbos provide the same effect on the upper RPM ranges.
We are lucky to have the supercharger and bypass valve already on our cars. This arrangement lends it self favorably to a compound arrangement. I am interested to see the one car undergoing a twin turbo install now.

Out Of Control!!
Once you adress the previously mentioned problems (definitely not an easy task, stand alone engine management looks like the only option right now) then you have to see how much the stock block can hold, not to mention the trans/axles/rear end

Are stand alone options very costly? I would think that if someone was going to invest the time and money into a project like this that would be the only way to go, right?

LET is doing a TT install right now on a C32. Native ECU tuning will be used, no standalone. Check the C32 section - it's close to done !!!
