Which of your trucks is it for? How much horsepower are you making? What are you using the truck for? With this information I could get you some information on our turbo setup.

Look into the setup that Source Automotive sells. Great kit and very easy to upgrade in the future!! My buddy runs them and it flat out moves! Check out their website or give Bill or Rip a call. Best guys to work with by far!!

The R700 is a great all around turbo set up. You will have very good bottom end throttle response and tonnes of air to keep the egts down. It would also still have some growing room for you as well. We are a Borg Warner engineering house here, so this isnt a "lets try this and lets try that and hope it works" setup. This is where the great all around performance comes from. These are complete kit. You get he manifold new airbox and all the hardware needed. This is a bolt on kit, no fabrication needed.

If you need any other information at all just let me know.

You would definately have the air needed for that horsepower. As long as you can get the fuel there then yes.

Pat, what turbos you running on the R700? you guy still running the smaller S300 stuff, or findly decided to use the S475? Personally, I would run a ball bearing GT3788R over a K-31. Faster spooling and way more air. I've run a few sets now. Probably also alot less money than a BD or PDR set of twins. I have a local shop that we actually do turbo R&D. Different impellers and housings from different turbos. Lots of things can be done to improve air flow and spool-up that don't cost to much $$$.

I'm sure Pat will correct me but I believe the R700 is a SuperB over an S400(71mm)..
