Guys, Does anyone know what the other turbo is in the Arctic Air Twins setup. One is stock and the other is? I'm getting ready to splurge on a turbo setup and this one looks better than a big 66 single. ks

 

Give Chris a call at www.relentlessdiesel.com, I have talked with him a couple of times, he is very knowledgeable guy and I am sure will provide any information you would like. Propaganda sheets below.

It is a bht3b

 

ABC, where abouts in Canada are you located? I may have another option for you.

JDavy, what is a Pro 52 turbo? Jeff, I run between SS Marie Ontario and Atlantic Canada. KS

 

I've never heard of Arctic Air Twins before, anyone here have them? How's the quality of the kit? Doesn't seem like a bad price.

 

I second that. Chris is an amazing guy and is great to talk to. He'll answer any questions you have.

 

"JDavy, what is a Pro 52 turbo? "
A pro-52 is holset hx-52 ,it has a 16 cm ex housing.I like it but I am still going to twins because I miss that bottom end fun of the stocker.

 

The arctic air twins is basically a HTB3, and piping. You use your stock turbo for the small turbo on the kit.

 

Is anyone running this set up?

 

I just don't like that there is no external wastegate. The stock turbo is awfully small with it's 9cm exhaust housing to be pushing all that exhaust gas energy through it. I bet spool-up is instant though. It will be interesting to see how long the stocker lives as this kit gets more popular.

 

I wish I wasnt married, and have a kid, and didnt have to work everyday, and make truck payments, and house payments..................O'l to be a rich boy. Maybe in my next life

 

WL. One ex wife, one kid, one on the way, $3000 mortgage on farm, $1000 power bill, $500 cell bill, Truck paid for, priceless. Work three jobs or work like you had three jobs and you to can have twins, I mean turbos ....twins yikes

 

ABC....are you gonna go for this kit or what?

I started prepping some budgetary numbers for this kit, parts and labor (I don't trust myself doing it)..

Now I just have to prepare an Executive Proposal to the resident CFO and explain what kind of ROI we'll be getting from it .
With the current company image enhancements initiatives we have going on (house projects), I hope to have monies allocated by beginning of next fiscal year (summer)

 

Ramirezh, Yep twins are going on very soon. I want a set of BD Power twins with the big turbo being a s400 instead of a s300. I want an arctic air except with wastegates and a 12cm housing on the baby one. I want a piers towing twins for $1000 less. I want a set of ATS twins for $1500 less. These turbos individually are pretty inexpensive. Add a couple of oil lines a wastegate and 4 feet of welded pipe and you get a $2500 additional cost. If I didn't want the twins now I'd fab a set in about 5 weeks. There is no diesel speed shop within 1000 miles of where I am. Hmmmm maybe I'll open a diesel speed shop and at least I'll have one customer. Ultimately I want to tow at 450 to 500hp and play with 600 to 700 hp. ks
