I head that same line at the High Desert Diesel Roundup two years ago...

Don't hold your breath...

 

ya, i'm with the crew on this one ... for 3400 bucks I can get a set of MPI twins (starter set using the stocker) ...

I know this diesel game is expensive, but I'm beginning to think ATS makes their stuff outta gold ...

 

Actually, seeing the overwheling response and success to HTT's stainless steel EH's...


ATS is set to announce their new MST is going to be of a secret squirrel alloy blend of Palladuim, Platinum and Plutonium.

When the turbo blows-- it'll really BLOW!!!

It will be the perfect match to Hohn's new copper intake!

 

was more than a little surprised myself- but i bet they would throw in a free t-shirt!

 

I was told by Geoff at ETR they would be around $2000.Maybe this is an introductory price.

 

i dunno- got the $3400 price from ats themselves.

 

Clint is working very hard to make a new concept work in the diesel world. He has been working on this for quite a while. I'm sure he could have released it a while ago but wouldnt you rather have it perfect? I know that my ATS tranny has never had one problem with all the abuse, miles, and power I have put to it. When ATS builds a products their defiantly doing something right!!

 

Last I saw on their website, its based on the Aurora 4000 and comes with a new downpipe and ats pulse manifold. Still, trying to justify $3400 for all that is gonna be tuff.

 

I have dealt a lot with ATS. They told me the turbo should support up to 600 HP. A MST by ityself supports up to 600 HP. An MST compounded with a larger turbo will support over a 1000HP. Like my tiny BD Twins, I can use the smaller turbo by itself or add the second to make a compound system. The MST can be used by itself or with a larger turbo. I think that is how they explained it to me.

Confuse anyone?

MST by itself will be around $2000.

MST compounded with a larger turbo (4000, 5000, or that 7000) will be around $5000.00. (the 7000 is not listed on their website but in a brochure I got with my ATS products).

They said it should be out very soon.

Too much money for my california 235HP Cummins! I'll stick with my BD twins and if I get thirsty for more power I'll upgrade the one turbo for 400 series. Right now I am working on fueling.

 

did they tell you $2000. for sure? they told me about a month ago that it was only days away from being ready, and the price would be $3400.

 

got any updates?

 

Hahaha yeah right, this ATS stuff is a joke. I took them seriously about almost being out a year ago. Maybe Ill go down to their headquaters one of these days and get an answer for you guys

 

i was actually thinking about this, earlier this week. gave ats a call, but they were on lunch, but will definitely try to remember to call early next week.

 

That would be cool. I was reading the latest diesel power and saw an article about one of the ats guys trucks? Maybe it wasn't, but anyway the article stated he was running this turbo. I am pretty sure anyway. I think he was running it with a 4000 in a compound setup. Anyone read that article? I left the mag at work or I'd go re-read it.

 

The one in the article had the stock HE351 over the MST. They showed this setup on the Trucks TV show last year sometime. There was also a member here that had seen it in development at ATS a while before that. On the trucks show they got around 450hp with a programmer if I remember correctly but dont recall what the EGT was or even if they said what it was.

That setup uses flex pipe between the primary and secondary. I remember on Trucks when the primary lit up watching the flex expand.
