Talking MPI Twins Are In!!! (Pics Inside)

They're Maximized Performance Inc (Nathan Wright) twins using the stocker over an S400. To make a long story short, my driveway/carport were occupied for a few weeks and I needed to get this kit installed right away so I drove up to Boise to visit the twins man himself. Nathan was nice enough to do the install for me at a very fair price and did an excellent job.

Boost is up and EGT's are down a ton. On a 70 - 105mph WOT run the highest I saw was 1370*. With the stocker and 64/71/13 those temps would have been 1600+ by 90mph. Smoke is basically non-existent when you don't want it, and clears up quickly and completely under WOT. Lag seems about the same as it was with just the stocker (very minimal). The sound is fricken incredible!

I wanted the color to match the silver GDP intake I just installed and it came out an exact match. I know a lot of people would go with a much flashier color instead, but I like the idea of it looking stock to someone who doesn't know any better...stealth mode.

"looking stock" That's funny! It looks awesome and I'm glad it's doing what you hoped!

I do wish people would stop calling compound turbo's of different sizes "twins".

Man, his work sure looks nice. It looks like he has thought out every little detail. I haven't seen one in person, but in the pics it looks like all loose ends have been tied, so to speak.

Workmanship is first class all the way. Fit and finish is as good as it gets!

Next dyno/track numbers will be at sea level.

I do that because it's easier to read when you put it in upside down.

I know, I know. It's just so much longer to say/write "compound" instead of just "twins". The compound setup is pretty much the only twins you'll see on a Cummins anyway.
