call engineered diesel and talk to chris. he is more than willing to ask/answer questions about your setup. seemed extremely knowledgeable and confident in what he was talking about . . .

Rob, go for a ride in Tate's dually. If you want to go a with something a little less expensive for chargers we can do that. Between Mike, Tate and I we have 30 - 40 chargers to choose from. 
What are you running for a charger right now? What is your horsepower goal?

Mine was free (Thanks Curtis!), but most go for around $1500 new. Could probably find a used one for less than a grand, though. Easier than doing twins, cost is iffy, depending on what turbo(s) you use for those.

He has 4.10 gears and 33" tires I do believe, with my 3.55's and 35's makes pulling a 7000lb trailer possible but I have to really watch my rpms and egt's.
