Oh no doubt it will cost a lot, but doesn't everything when you're trying to make big #'s.
I'm possitive a big turbo or a big centrifi would be more efficient. But I don't think that's their goal. They want 4 digit tq numbers down low, like around 2000rpm. A big *** turbo or centrifi won't/can't provide that.
As for dual throttle bodies, it can be made to work. Vipers have 2 from the factory. And drag cars and dyno queens don't use cruise control anyway.

I think some folks are missing the big picture here, as Vanillia G has mentioned this is a Magna Charger/ Crash Dummy Racing / BlownChevy project. We are building a race truck to go out and run next year this manifold will be a one off for the LSx motor. As for it not working, it will and it does, been there have the shirt....remember we/I build superchargers for vehicles here, this is what we/I do!

Hey B, when's the projected completion date, so I can sleep at night? And that **** better stick through the hood!
For those skeptics, there was a mild Buick 455 with twin old school roots blowers that put 700hp/tq to the ground. It was a very streetable build and it worked quite well. It also lacked the modern head technology of the LSx.
Get 'er done!
