has anybody ever looked into doing a twin turbo set up on an SVT? and if so, what about on a 3.0L block?

maybe your hiding something from us and your engine bay is bigger than the rest of ours! 
what is the point of using twin turbos over a single turbo?! Obviously, as the displacement of the engine increases a smaller size turbo efficieny will drop which is why they use a bigger turbo for top end hp. The 2.5L or 3.0L arent big enough in displacement to even begin using a TT setup!
we dont have to do it to know it wont fit and to know whether there is any benefit of doing a single turbo vs TT on a small displacement motor. Have you seen how crammed it is with just one turbo?
but i guess go ahead and find out for yourself. There is ZERO benefit in doing a TT with the contour motor. The single turbo on our engine will always prevail. 
Oh yeah, and when you get it up and running, let us know where your mounting the intercooler with all the left over space. 
[rant on]I'm sorry if this sounds harsh, but those 2 links i provided you have insite given from some of those most knowledge people on these forums, especially Rara when it comes to turbos. Saying your not satisfied with their given information is a low blow imo!  [/rant off]

Please educate us why you would want twin turbos instead of a single properly sized turbo...

also you see a lot of people changing supras from TT to a single, bigger turbo b/c it leads to greater HP gains.

I see most supras with one single large turbo and another much smaller turbo to aid in spooling up. Of course twin turbos would be a heck of a project on a contour, not worth the money, time, or results.
