It'll work, but an S400 is better and also costs less. Nathan (MPI) sells a sweet stocker/S400 kit for a very reasonable price.

Check out my sig and see my set up. Knowing that now^^^ I agree with above. The BHT3B can be had for less than 700... but the S400 is a little better turbo. I have mine cuz I got a good deal, so am not complaining... I'm still better than many other twins and most all singles. I just have an "old school" setup. There are better tops and better bottoms to be had; it doesn't mean they all work together. Twins is a complicated science, not as easy as just putting one turbo on top of another. I recommend MPI as well.

the 35/3B is a good drivable setup, Piers sells them as their twin kit. you might could get the piping from Source Automotive, I think they just the piping.

those twins have been around a while, and have been labeled 'dinosaur turbos' but I think its a good setup

Those are the turbos in my truck and I have no complaints. I bought them in the full kit though, so all the thinking was done for me. Doing them from scratch, I would expect to spend quite some time getting the wastegate(s) set so that they run efficiently.

I run them also, my ht3b was 416 $ to my door....I dont know anything about the s400, I ve had my hx35/ht3b for about 3 years now. You do need to go bigger on the hx35 exhuast housing, I run a 14 non gated, but am adding a gate in the middle. It has worked great, and feel like aybe Im screwing up a good thing by messing with it. I just got my ddp 4 today....so Im putting in and pulling my 370's out, then switching to a three peice ported manifold.

The truck is perfect and Im still changing things, I must not be very smart.
