With forced induction the engine's characteristics change; the engine will still make good power up to 6000 RPMs with twin turbos and a fully-ported TPI setup.

That said, however, you'll be shorting yourself a lot of potential power by keeping the stock TPI. It just doesn't flow enough air to take full advantage of forced induction.

Will such a combo make more power than stock? Absolutely. But it will be a huge compromise.
