TWINS with STOCK injectors

I want to end up with TWINS and a huge set of Don M injectors. Can I get twins to spool up with my stock injectors? If I go with injectors that will run the twins first, I wont be able to manage EGT's. I pull a 10k trailer and drive this thing everyday Im trying to figgure out how to get there "600hp" from here "350 hp" I know lots of guys are making more hp than this with one big turbo and I think thats cool but please dont try to talk me out of twins or promote your single turbo's greatness. Im grateful for any help you guys can give.

I made 613 HP on stock injectors and twins. And yes, it was very drivable and tow friendly.

that is amazing all the guys on here respect you snd I appreciate any input you could give me. Do you mind telling me what set up boxes programmers etc were you running what has worked the best for you. I bet your Egts were super low probably not much smoke either Did you use your stock turbo for the smaller of the two?

HX40 on top, HT3b on bottom. It is the same combo I am currently running for turbos. The combo was a crazy larry downloader stacked with the TST and a pusher pump for the fuel system. Everything else, motorwise was stock. Never even had the valve cover off. LOL

that is too cool I thought it would be so much harder to do 600hp sounds like I need to star saving for turbos did you build the setup yourself your self or buy a kit from someone. Id like to know the best place to buy. Is pusher a brand name? What do you think would be possible hp by adding twins to my sig

I am currently beta testing the Van Aaken C5 box. It looks to be very promising. I am also keeping my fingers clinched tight around my Smarty. LOL The boost was around 55-60 psi. The twins consisted of a PDR 40/3b and hot pipe. I built all the cold piping.

No headgasket probs or stretced bolts? What knid of boost did you see towing I assume 55 to 60 as well. Knowing what you do now would you go the same way turbo wise?

I would run these turbos again in a heartbeat. Headgasket problems did arise around the 40K mile mark, but it was not boost related. It was from a defective torque wrench that did not allow me to apply the needed amount of correct torque to my headstuds when I installed them. Since then I have increased boost to 65-70 psi and have thrown more fuel at it and not had any issues to date. (knock on wood) LOL

The C5 is a box right? Not a programmer? So it could be stacked with the Smarty? Have you tried it yet?
