Just ordered a lot of parts

Hiya! I was asking what kind of parts should I buy to my truck but didn't get any decent answer on all of those part combinations so I just bought the parts that I found most reasonable for me.

So here are the new parts which are on their way allready:
Haisley machine headgasket with mild steelfire rings and stantard head stud kit and their twinturbo system. Stock hx 35, they'll send bigger exhaust housing+ borg warner s4 series turbo. Don't know how big I can go with that combination but I'll see.

And then of course, F1 diesel Mach 6 injectors and quadzilla adrenaline with pulse monitor.

Oh and allmost forgot that I ordered 6 inch chromed Bull-Haulers as well

I was driving a 450rwhp vp44 01 Ram with goerend trans and I love the way how it changed gears with OD on, I specially liked the automatic lock-up on 3rd gear. It felt like I had overdrive on and the turbine lock went on, but then it unlocked it and changed to od and locked it again! Everything happened so fast and you really can feel the effiency of the trans. Wow, what a feeling with a light throttle.

I read that Dtt has a smart controller, but everybody is talking about towing and hand shifting. How can I get my trans to shift like that goerend does? I would love to have that same kind of lockup on a 2nd gear also in a normal daily driving without any mystery switches. Is it possible wit dtt smart controller and how much does it costs, about?

And now when I have decided and ordered my parts, please tell me how wrong I went

Here's another link in case you can't get the Haisley. As far as I know the DTT controller will allow lockup in second gear.

Thanks for the link!

I really hope that I don't need that because I desparinigly want that haisley machines twin turbo set-up too. I think that's the cheapest around and still a good set with a good turbo.

Argh!

Haisley Machine has raised their twinturbo kits price for 4800 usd!

That's just too much for a kit that uses the stock turbo. I'm going for BD or ATS twins then... If I can afford those... I just have to consider those really carefully.

Don M:
Didn't realise that you are the man behind the Mach injectors!

That very same truck that I was telling you guys about on the first post that had Goerend trans, it had Mach 4's also.
What an great injector, I hope 6's are as good too. I'm not sure but I could be first one in here to have Mach 6's. There are very few 24v isb cumminses here, especially highly tuned. I have read that in some cases Mach 6's can cause lugging shudder below 1500rpm's in OD but I hope I don't get that. Actually, what could even cause that if that's true?

Haha, nice to know that you have watched Räikkönen's driving, I personally like Mika Häkkinen, he's retired now but he was the man.

There are a couple of companies that can fix you up on twins for a decent price. http://www.pdrdiesel.com/catalog/1998_2002-162-1.html and Source Automotive are a couple off the top of my head.

Mach 6's are really nice.

I went to ATS Compounds from their website. I never have really got into BD twins because the bottom turbos small size.

I hope everything goes well and I can achieve what I want, which is:

Lots of power, awesome power curves and sounds, high twelves on 1/4mile and about 3-4s to 0-60mph and still keep the awesome driveablity....
