There will be no pics of this weekends twins. It is for one of my best friends, that has been waiting a year for me to "fit" him in (hence the Canada Day long weekend when everyone else is camping and having fun, I will be welding cutting grinding). It is pie cutted and hacked together with a stock charger, with a used whatever is left over primary charger. I would never do this build for anyone else, it is GHETTO. No Pics.

Jamie as long as Mike has a chance to run to the boarder this week, there should be pics of your set tacked and ready for fitting by the DPS weekend.

Trev's truck is an 06, Brett has tons of pictures. Way more than what we usually do. Brett/Trev installed twins, studs, gauges over the long weekend. Went from a pile of pipes and parts to complete package. Pulled max of 42psi on a few low speed pulls. Haven't have to much time to play with the truck yet. The CP drains the fuel supply down fairly low.

I have zero pics, but Trevor documented the whole thing, and says either he is posting the pics or I am. So once he emails me the pics I will put some up.

It was still a very ghetto / rushed / hacked together set, as we started from scratch, and did the twins, head studs, gauges, and custom turbo back exhaust, all in one weekend. Wanted to install the Fass as well, but ran out of time.

On the short couple pulls we made iirc we saw a max of 42psi and 1200 degrees. On the same tune that he made 442whp on the stock charger, but now it was completely clean.

Didn't have much chance to test and tune, as the G56 gave up 3rd gear, on a hard 2-3 shift on about the 3rd pull. So now I have a tranny swap to do too... This day job is starting to get in the way of working on trucks, too bad trucks don't pay the bills...

I know one thing, it runs faster than my 2010, but that not saying much. Even with those big wheels, the only thing that allowed me to catch up was you guys blowing off the intercooler line.

Trev is running the SSR smarty, and stock everything else. Faster than my 2010 H&S broken nearly bone stone.

He needs injectors. After a new transmission, of course. Might have that taken care of soon too.

He is selling the SSR and going EFI Live. SSR is great, but he is fortunate enough to be in that 2 year range (2006 and early 2007) where EFI live is available, so that is the direction it will go.
