Ok guys i've been playing around with a few different setups wh1c/gt4294, hybrid h1E/gt4294, but finally settled and i got both turbos. Stage 2 ball bearing gt3782r 59.1/72.5/.89a/r and gta4202 journal bearing 75/82/1.15a/r. Maybe i'll hit 700+.

700?? you be lucky to hit 550 with no nitrous this time! :hehe:

hey just kidding man. i hope it all works out for you
 
Im running two 625ml nozzles so it shouldn't be a problem.

Haha no i'll get more than 550 because i turned my barrels while the pump was still on the truck lol.
 
This should be interesting. I had thought of doin this for a friend.

Keep us posted on the results!!
 
looks good, you might want to look into taking off that internal gate, pulling out the flapper and plug welding the hole and using a nice external gate . i think Soulezoo had said his twin setup was a little much for the internal gate
 
Well id like to see how it does with the internals and go from there. Maybe it'll be just fine if i don't over fuel it. I'll probably use these turbos on a more streetable project that runs cool, has power, and tows around.
 
right after ASF my lift pump died and i got an airdog and its twice the truck now. idles smoother with the airdog on top of the turned barrels.

good luck with your twins. im going away from the twins idea for a while. the Engineered Diesel's turbos really sound like the right thing to do now. i will twin it much later with the ED turbo i have my eye on!
 
Your turbo isn't gonna live long. As far as twins, it seems like everyone said they wanted to just have a single(i did), but eventually everyone gets or wants compounds. There's just not alot that can beat them for a DD, towing, mileage, spoolup, and power. Can't have all that at once with a single.
 
I'm planing on using the exact same primary with a 57/65/14 so keep up the good work and take lots of pics
 
the single i wanna run is not going to be gigantic like some people run. yeah i dont think the hx35 likes 50psi at 7000ft elevation. its gotta go sometime!
 
You'd probably make more power if you set your wastegate to 40psi.
 
I'll be curious how yours turn out. I've had these turbos sitting in my sisters garage for two years now, still haven't gotten them installed. Only thing different is My GT42 is a BB and it has a tighter housing. One of these years I'll get them put on the truck.
