The only thing I could think of when I first saw the turbos was "HOLY F***"

Is there a reason he kept the 3.5 and didn't go with a 3.8 or 4.2??? And yeah can someone please explain double sleeved?

A few reasons, one of the major reasons is the use of aluminum rods which already require clearancing of the block. Also this setup is running up to 12000rpm.

Double sleeving is machining out the block and using an aluminum sleeve, then coming back with a custom darton sleeve inside of that.
