nope, it won't bother the 2nd cp3 I don't think... the ones I've seen are on pull trucks with cp3x2. 
I don't have a pic sry.

Home made race twins , Finally running !!!!!
- Thread starter TrentNell
- Start date
Looks good Trent, I hope to be able to copy this some day, wonder if a LLY twin setup would be fast
Thanks guys :hug: , I think the only change i am considering making is to ditch the 5"-3.5" reducer "cone" I just dont like it and its not really needed I think it would look alot better with out it and really isnt imporving flow where the charge pipe is force feeding it . But i may leave it I dont know if i care enough to hassle with it .

That thing is sick trent. How long did that take you and about how much do you think you will have into it for just piping excluding those small turbos
750 bucks into all piping, flanges , and material for pedestal spacer , a few of the flanges weren't cheap and got "cost " on mostn of them ............ time i am into it about 12 -14 hrs so far but a truck with the turbo's at normal height ( i raised mine alot) would be more time into the charge pipe mine was easy to build.
Edit : even doing everything my self paying zero for labor i will be into it about 4k getting cost on everything , so still not a cheap thing to do...............

The turbo's and piping look fine to me. Now the green and purple on the other hand............ well I'll keep my mouth shut LOL

Love em trent. Let me know when this set needs a new home and I will take care of them too haha.
how did you mount the large turbo to the truck?
is it bolted to the frame or motor. i am just figuring out the last details on my twin kit i will be building.
By the way I love the color combination going on under the hood you deffinatly need to have black tubing and green turbos:thumb::thumb::thumb:

twins bolted to the frame wouldnt last 5 miles of driving before breaking something due to motor mount flex/movement...
i kind of figured that just wasnt sure since there isnt a whole lot of room on that side.
I made a plate that bolted into 2 of the ground lugs on the side of the block , and moved the wires to adjacent bolts ( there are 4 ground bolts ) then welded the bracket to that plate , you will have to figure it out it isnt too hard though .

Well so much for reversing the intercooler flow , it wont clear the fuel splitter block with out putting the pipe on the pass side and having a sharp 90 cutting back and that totally defeats the purpose of flipping it in the first place, well it would but luckily I remembered that I hadn’t put the FPRV back in, not a big deal it will still fork fine the normal way. Hopefully I can finish the fab this weekend so I can send the parts out to get coated and slap the trans in and actually get to start this thing :happy2:

No , def not for sale might build a set for my dads truck (towing set ) , and help a freind or 2 if they wanted to do the same, but I will leave it to the pro's . All i am hoping to make HP wise is around 950 it should have air for more ( 1000-1300 ?? ) but i still dont have a ton of fuel, need some bigger sticks now but it will have to wait .
