thanx Rick, that seems to be what everyone's saying. i guess at some point you just have to make a decision, pull out the credit card, and pull the trigger.

it's definitely a tough decision picking a turbo. i went back and forth for a couple months before settling for what i got. i couldn't agree more with rip, this turbo screams through mid and high range w/ a little lag on the low range. i couldn't be happier with my choice. you're ultimately going to have to give up something if you go with a single. twins are a different story though.

thanx for the help- that makes you and Rick both voting for the 62/65/13ss.
anyone know who has the best prices on HTT?

I went through Lloyd Mills, he was great to talk to and he had my stuff here quickly. he is busy like always, but you should be able to catch him now. If not, I believe Lary is having some sales in the DTR store, give him a ring. He is also great to talk to! You will love the turbo, I know it is a hard decision, I battled myself to the death before calling Lloyd. If I love my 71 wheel this much, I KNOW you'll love that 65, it will really wake up a whole new side of yur Cummins.

If you're married i think you may want to hide the credit card bill when it comes, as a matter of fact hide the whole thing, do the turbo at a friends house, save some drama!!!

that's funny!!!! i think there should be a forum for our wives so that they can talk about how much money we spend on our trucks.....maybe it would help them cope better. i got my turbo back in may and i'm still hearing about it.

You are going to have to decide which is more important to what you are wanting. We are going to have the best bottom end response with good top end flow. Then you can get into our R700 twins which will spool almost as quickly as your stock turbo and flow tonnes of air.

62/65/14 has great power and is not as expensive as the stainless steel and spools really well

Or do what I'm doing and save up for a MPI twins set up useing the stock turbo to me it's the best of both worlds. for the allmost 2k your going to pay. for 1500 more you got a twin set up.
