question on twin setup

I just purchased a twin setup from a guy and i have a few questions . I am pretty new to the diesel modding so work with me!!

First off here is what I am working with:
the primary is a BHT3B/26 , Secondayr is a WH1C with a HTT stage IV kit ( 60 mm comp.) with a 14 cm wastegated housing ( drilled to wastegate all cylinders) .... It comes with all the hot and cold piping , 5" downpipe - reduced to 4" , couplers, basically everything i need.

I have 3 turns on my pump , a DennyT pin on the way , and i will be doing full 4" exh., and ordering some injectors ( the ddp 80 horse )

My question is ... Other then oringing the head and doing studs . What other things need to be done ? Is it necessary for me to do a diff. lift pump when i do injectors ?

Thanks in advance for any advice ... It is greatly appreciated

Ryan

Depends how much power you wanna make. I think a at least a low pressure piston pump would be very necessary with those injectors. Theres a lot of threads on the board about the electric pumps. You got the big bad twin setup? Why not go bigger injectors like edm's?

Punch a hole in the oil pan for the bottom turbo drain.

for power. edm's 6x16's are the best for power over pods ANY DAY. edm's are cleaner too. just more expensive. i would recommend sending your stock injectors out to have them custom made to 6x16......with all that air you'll be fine EGT wise. those injectors should be perfect with your air setup.

YES , it is Gregs ( ilikebikes) old setup ... i just bought it from him early this week. have you been around him??
I also saw a place gethoned.com that would do stock injectors. i guess it will be between the new eras and getting mine redone to the 6 x16.

I don't personally know him, but I kept up on his twins build and in my opinion he did an amazing job. Glad somebody finally bought them, and at a heck of a good deal.

I would suggest doing a lift pump. Not sure which to do though, the low pressure piston pump or go with an electric. I think I'm going with an electric before it's all said and done. But everyone has their own opinion on this matter.
