SPS62 to Twins?

I recently traded in my '05 for an '06 Mega Cab, but before doing so I removed my SPS62 that I've had for less then a month. The turbo is great, but I wanted a little more as well as quicker spool.

So now I have to decided if I should just put the SPS62 in the '06 or if I should go with a twins setup. Would a good set of twins give me quicker spool? Also, if I were to go twins should I just buy a complete setup and sale my SPS62 or try and integrate it into a twins setup?

Thanks!

Twins should spool faster depending on their size. I've never dealt with a SPS 62 but I have a feeling that you could incorporate that into a set of twins.

Comparing spool up depends, significantly, on which set of twins is being compared to which single.

My 2 bits says take the 62, work with II in terms of the exhaust housing, and use it as the secondary in twins (compound) set with a B2.

Add liberal doses of fuel accordingly.

Twins rock! After running twins, I would never go back to a single. If spool-up is the driving factor in your decision, the smaller the top turbo, the faster they will spool. The big turbo plays a part in spool, but not as much as the top for initial spool-up. Just have to look at the smaller kits and see which you like the best. Piers 35/3B twins and BD-Power twins come to mind for lightening fast spool.

I have a used BD power twin turbo upgrade kit with brand new hot and cold pipes that could easily fit that SPS62....cheap. I've been meaning to get it listed in the classifieds all week. With the SPS62 on top though, spool is not going to be "lightening fast". If you didn't like the way the SPS62 spooled for you as a single, then you definitely won't like it on top in a twins application.

Couldn't he just use the sps62 as the big turbo? And then find some cheap little turbo to use as the top?

The SPS62 is not big enough to use as the big turbo. It would be more of a hinderence than a help.
