I just got done with a twin T-28 Honeywell install, with a Greddy Boost Controller and custom plumbing. I haven't hit the Dyno yet, but due to the lack of traction in third gear and the seat of my pants, I think I'm in the 500+ range. Goodness this thing is bad!

Those seem a little small for twin turbocharging a V8...

Twin T3 turbos work great for all of the V8's, even mild 408's... radical 408's should go with twin T4's...

Hope it puts out some good numbers!

Later!

For those who cant go to Nopi Nat. A magazine called Digital Wheels will be doing a feature on my truck it will be posted on their site in OCT. It is Digitalwheels.net. Hope you guys get a chance to check it out. If anyone in Miami needs any work done to their truck call Sci-Tech motorsports @305-254-3023 ask for Bruce he designed and installed my turbo system.

I'm with Duner, I don't doubt you, but we have seen no pictures or perf. numbers at all...

Duner's posted pics and perf. numbers of his single turbo 4.7L... We've posted pics and perf. numbers of Project "R/T-2" twin-turbo R/T...

Where is it?

Message:
GMAN - I didn't say it didn't exist.

I said it disappeared before we got a chance to see it. You told us all about it and that it was gonna be in some shows, and you promised to take some pics of it and show us the 10-second timeslip that it was gonna produce. You went thru all the trouble to tell us all that information..... then you dropped off the face of the planet as far as this site is concerned. Then we never heard from you again!

I frequent a number of Dodge/Dakota/Automotive sites and haven't seen or heard anything on any other sites either. I'm sure myself and many others would love to see some pics and also know how much performance you gained!

Maybe one of us ATL boys will have to show up and take the pics. So, GMAN, is this thing gonna drive in to AMS or will it be on a trailer? Don't guess there's any way we'll get to see you up at Commerce for Fri nite test & tune on the 20th, is there? That'd be the perfect time to show us that 10-sec run.....

The original post was from a friend of mine trying to jerk my chain. Looks like everyone else heard my chain clanking and came out to play.

even though the post was from August of last year.

AZDAK,
Are you running a 60-1? Are you intercooled? Just curious. We're stuffing a 60-1 and a air/air IC in my '03 4.7. You have any track times with the 5psi and are you RC or CC?
