Any draw back to dual CP3's with stock.....

injectors and turbo??
I am thinking about grabbing a Helix2, F1 springs and a Evil twin kit...my question is..
are their any draw backs that I need to know of since I will still have stock sticks and a STOCK TURBO
those would be my next mods but if I can get the springs, cam and Cp3 then later get the turbo and sticks at once it would be ALOT easier on my pocketbook.
Thanks for any insite you guys have.....

The only draw back is not get near the performance that you could. I would say do turbo and sticks, then springs, cam and cp3s.

I dont mind the less performance then what it could be if I had a turbo and sticks.....thats kinda the point....I am all about the supporting mods first..even if it is not quiet as fun as a set of twins or some huge sticks.
but if I can get dual fuelers, cam, and springs..and run them with what I got then when I get the cash for my twins and sticks I can do those two spendy upgrades together since they kinda go hand and hand...then I will be ready for the TNT-R tune and I wont have to worry about blowing up my truck.
I know it is kinda weird style to build but..it is a safe way to build.

You probably wouldnt want to run around with twins that size and stock injectors everyday anyway.

I dont know.... there are some high Hp trucks on here and other places that run them with no problems...so why cant I.
*edit* I did not see that you said stock injectors and big twins....your right I would not want to do that...big sticks, twins and Twin Cp3's...would be spendy all at once and then to top it off I would not be able to romp it cause I would not have springs and cam....so I figure if I split it up...cam, springs and evil twins.....then twins and big sticks..I should be able to romp HARD by the time I get the turbos and sticks and not have to worry as much.

You will barely be able to run any electronics. Smarty etc... If at all. Might be kinda hard on the injectors but they should be fine with added pressure from a fueling box.

The added pressure of the Dual cp3s will be hard on injectors just like running a pressure box on stock injects.

Running electronics= running smarty on 9 versus stock, changing the PLs on a quad box.

Help?

well according to Lloyd the dual cp3's only put out what the ECM tells it to..so even with dual's the pumps would still only put out what I ask...meaning if I run a smarty program with out pressure then I have no extra wear and tear.

in fact I should have less stress/wear on my cp3 cause I would have 2 pumps working at half there pumping power.
right?

Marco has said Smarty still brings in pressure just not above stock limits just different places in curve.

I have heard different things about dual cp3s and pressure, I would do some more reading on that.


Quick Reply: Any draw back to dual CP3's with stock.....
