Question Question to all 12 valve pro's?

I have my siq filled out to current stats. I am wanting to go with the DDP stage 3's and a big single( still researching turbo, want something from HTT ) both at the same time in a few month's. I tow 7,000 lbs in Florida bout 2 days a week. Will this be an ok setup? And can I get close to 450 or 500 RWHP? Please any advice, have been sifting threads for days

I would do the SPS62/14 or a HTT 62/71/13SS with a 4" exhaust. That should tow just fine and drive very nice at 450-500rwhp...

7000lb isnt very heavy, and florida isnt very hilly or high altitude. you could probably get away with an 64/71 with a 13 stainless housing it will easily do 450 hp

The 140 sticks should be a pretty good all around setup with a 64mm charger

If all he wants is 450-500 he doesn't need anything bigger than a 62mm turbo IMO. And my injectors are bigger than DDP4's and I have towed 20k-ish with them, just switch to valet mode and off ya go.

Also...with a 64mm charger, you will have some surge to deal with IMHO...not much at 7K lbs, but you might get some! Keep the RPM up a bit if you do

I almost don't consider 7K towing...my trailer weighs more than that empty

I know a few guys that only run a 62 MM wheel that tow quite a bit of weight w/o haveing a whole lot of problems with heat. On some long steep hills they get hot but driveing around Ohio and KY they do just fine with the 62 wheel.

Schoust good luck with the turbo and keep us informed, And Im not necessarily limiting myself to 500. I just want the turbo and injector upgrade to be the end of my upgrades, but If I can run some big injectors and still be cool Im goin for it. And I agree 7,000# isn't hauling its just smoothin out the ride of the dually but I wanna make sure I give all the info I can so I get the right advice. So what setup do you guys think? as far as injectors and turbo? I've got 2 months to research.
