I have run both pumps in my Evil Twin setup, no difference whatsoever in performance. Run the pump you can get the better deal on.


My current setup with a Cummins pump


My previous setup with the D-max pump

I heard the Dmax pumps are easier to fit on the top of a dual setup and that they flow a little more when comparing stocker to stocker. Is this true?

I understand the same thing and that is why Brady uses Duramax cp3 pumps in his upgrades at II...

But that is only my understanding and I can be very wrong about that.

Thanks Lloyd, I am lookin for my second pump right now for later.

The reason I asked is because I THOUGHT the dmax pumps didnt like pressure very much, and to see if any of yall liked one over the other.

I supose I will just get the one I can find the cheapest. As long as the dmax pump will flow the same or more and it is as reliable thats good enough for me. But if it is easer to install thats a plus.

Thanks for the info fellas

No difference in price. And I didn't forget about you.
