HT3B+Hx35 VS. BD-Power Super "B" Twins

Which would yall recommend for twins with running DD5's?
HT3b with Hx35 WG's
Or
BD-Power's Super B Twins? Also what size are the twins on the BD-power?
BD-Power Twins

What are the pro's and cons of both?

Thanks Sean

Every BD product I tried was not of the best quality,, and I've tried a quiet a few items.

Did the products work? Yes. Work Well? No.

I talked indepth with the engineer that designed BD's Twin system.

It is designed to make smokeless 450 HP and keep EGT safe.

It tooks good on the truck, but a HX40/HT3B can support more fuel.

Smokeless power? Now whos line is that anyway?

Who would have thought that smokeless or low smoke would ever be popular?

I would not use the HX 35 on top. The 40 gives more air and will burn cleaner. NOT smokeless but cleaner. And I don't know why but 40's seem to break more than others. The 3B on bottom is a good choice.

Contact JR Adkins, he can put together a good set up for you. This is the HX35/16 - BHT3B/26 set up he did for my truck.

The no intercooler thing is just a mock up picture. The stainless pipe is also just for show. The production units will have powercoated pipes and will use the intercooler... it'd be silly not to. The price is actually pretty reasonable for what you get. They're not huge mega power twins, but more for the guy who wants to be able to use 450 hp all the time and not have to break the bank. I agree w/ Justin on the Scheid setup... it's the cleanest setup I've seen yet.

Well the reason I want to gowith the HT3B and the Hx35 is because the truck already has a 35 so use that a small and use 3B as big. Ill give JR and Peirs a call and see what they say.

Thanks yall
