i dont knock the twins but i ran a 12.04 with a 4094 and single CP3. The 4094 is alot cheaper and still has great driveablility. Im hoping to get in the 11's this year.
Found a cummins....

Ya I would like to run a gt42 since i dont do any towing....but that requires dual cp3's to get the most out of that charger and a built motor so I may run a Cheetah until I have the money for a small motor build then when im ready for dual cp3's ill put on the gt42. Twins would be nice but id rather run a single. Twins are nice for mainting towing capabilities and I assume their great on daily driver but I dont mind a big single instead.
I'm not sure if anyone has run a GT42-class charger with a single CP3.
It would be interesting to see what it does with a mod'd CP3 though.
matt ( maxpowerlb7 ) is running a gt42 cartrage bearing single cp3 with a modded ( home done ) regulator , he ran a 11.8# fuel only in vegas a few mounths back truck runs fine with a single cp3, and with the 1055 converter and high flow feed pipes its very streetable he tows some too just cant lug the gears.
Reece has a 4094 on his CCSB and at full weight with 20s he ran 12.30. I really dont think the cost is necessary to buy twins especially when you can pick up a used garrett for around $1500 just to get in the 12s. You can even run a stock turbo deep into the twelves..I guess im just unsure of what the purpose of wanting this dodge and/or wanting twin turbos in general is all about?
Honestly Its not because of the twin turbos that i liked the truck, its just a really cool truck IMO. He sent me a few more pics and it looks nice. Ill post them up later just for fun....I plan on keeping my dmax though. I just thought that gettin in the 12's would be too costly. But it looks like for the same trouble of goin through this i could keep mine and be in the 12's. Im thinkin on seeing how fast i can make my truck go on the stock turbo just for fun. Im never gonna be one of the fastest with aftermarket turbos so im gonna see if i can be one of the fastest with a stock turbo, at least until I have the money to do the truck right when i do go with an aftemarket turbo.
I happen to know where one is locally for sale
Ohh yaa, isnt Larry sellin his? I guess i could try it on a single cp3 for fun but i doubt my motor would last long with that thing on there. Itd be cool to se what itll do on a single cp3 though.
I'm not sure why you are worried abuot the durability of the duramax? The LBz does have a bad habit of crackin pistons, I have come to terms with that. While it does suck when it happens it could be alot worse, you could be one of the 24V cummins I can't remember the casting code but one of them the block cracks, it was a very common block it has been corrected I just can't remember the years it effected. I would rather crack a piston than crack my block. Like stated earlier I have nothin against Cummins I like them very much they are just rapped in a TERD of a truck.
Hopefully Ill be 10s with Twins here in a few months
You know I am startin to resent you
Ya but if a piston crack that means my trucks down till i get some better ones put in and that costs time and money....Pat thinks it was lack of quality control because some LBZ pistons crack and some dont. Until i push my truck harder i wont know. But if it holds up then great. Im just tryin to prepare for the worst, because if i just hope my motor is strong and then it blows its gonna suck.
Hopefully Ill be 10s with Twins here in a few months
wheres the smoking crack smiley?
