Is it possible to have it all?

O.K. Here is what I need to accomplish:

1. Daily Driver
2. 750+ H.P. - (a strong 750) on #2
3. Ability to tow my boat (7K at altitude)
4. EGT's in check
5. Occasional Stop Light racing

You can see what I have from my SIG...I am thinking a twin CP3 for sure will get me my H.P. number; however I need some suggestions on how I will manage the towing side of thinks. Is there a magic formula that someone has figures out? Do I need to contemplate Twins? If so, any recommendations?

I want to finish this truck this summer, so any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

I think twins are the only way to have it all quick spool up and the air on top to manage your EGT's. I tow alot and have pondered the same thing I'd like to have 500 useable HP towing racing etc.... You can pick up a set of twins that will allow you to do this for around 3grand from relentless. Just my .02

Yeah, you'll never get a single turbo that can support 750hp on #2 alone that is really streetable and good for towing. You're pretty much going to HAVE to go to twins, in my opinion.

Twins will be the way to go. When you want it all they are about your only option.

Sold on Twins

I agree...II is close to where I live, but any other providers I should consider. I currently have a stock turbo and a silver bullet. Any way I can utilize what I have?

I think relentless builds a set that will utilize your stock turbo??? For that matter It seems like anybody could build a set using your stock turbo. The towing set that PDR sells uses a modified HX35 not sure how it is modded

If you have a big ol' Silver Bullet, i would look into using a Silver 62 as your top turbo...quick spool up and a good supporting bottom turbo for the higher hp
