Obviously plenty of guys are making more power with a single...but I bet their trucks sure don't drive/tow the same on the street.

I haven't towed with it yet but i cant wait.
I think it would be interesting to see a thread on drive pressure.....big single vs twins like yours with a stocker on top.

Actually I might take that bet. I'm pretty sure i've got my silverbullet dialed in. No smoke on take off (except the haze from my injectors) and immediate boost and spool up. It drives very friendly and spool up time is literally like stock.

I've heard this twins setup has done 67psi max boost with 77psi of drive pressure. If that's the case then drive pressures should be really nice at 50-55psi.

a local truck had the bd power twin setup and it only had like 52psi of boost. I didnt really think that was impressive. my 05 with a little 66 would do that.
for the cost im gonna stick with a big single unless someone wants to sponser me anytime soon

My current twins will push through like 1200 CFM of air @60psi but my new twins will do over 2000CFM of air @60psi. HUGE difference in power.

Don't forget that boost means nothing; it's all about temperature and QUALITY of boost (i.e., quantity and quality of air being pushed through).

A friends truck wich was a 07 mega 6speed actually was able to spool a 66/16ss Better than a aurora 2000-5000 compond setup. Autos are able to spool twins easier than manuals he likes his big single setup now. He tows
10,000lbs very easy with minimal surging with 90 hp injectors. Besisdes If you are into competing good look because all the guys that pull in the open classes are around 1500hp. I think twins are great for racing in auto's just my .02

.But I'll let you know what I get when I get to the dyno, the mods in the sig already give you a pretty good idea of what I'll get.
