Educate Me on Twins

I would like to put twins on the truck, but i have no idea how to plumb them, what turbos to use and where to get parts. Id like to refrain from spending 4k on a BD kit.

A small secondary, no bigger than 62mm inducer. A nice primary, something in the 80-90mm inducer range.

First and foremost, they are COMPOUNDS, not twins.

I apologize, like i said I know very little about logistics of compounds. Anyways do i have the right idea that running compounds would help with my turbo lag?
