MPI Twin Owners, Come in!

[SIKDMAX]

How do you like your MPI Twin setup?

Who did your tuning?

What setup are you running? (Turbos, etc)

Anything else a prospective buyer should know?

I have the old setup that uses a ungated 69mm large turbo, IT runs great, way better than the gt4094r ever did with the same tune and is much more fun to drive! Almost smoke free with the same tune i made 570+with the gt40 and it smoked like a train then! @ 115mph its only 1250* @ 48psi

Who did your tuning? IdahoRob I haven't ran the race tune yet but the ~570hp street tune has stock manners, just a lot more power. No smoke, which is good IMHO.

What setup are you running? (Turbos, etc) Standard LMM kit with stocker

If you get em, I'll fly out and install em..........

 

[SIKDMAX]

Wow dipper.... Ill have to bring my truck down to Mikes for you too

Im looking to do the "extreme" kit... so I guess 70mm cheetah in stock location and whatever big charger to twin it with. Trying to figure out how much power I can make. (With rods,pistons,cam, 2x cp3 and sticks)

a LOT.

cheetah with twins is worthless IMO, but you do have the money...so why not!

I love my twins, even though they are 'old-skool' MPI

Im running my own tuning.

what setup am I running besides the twins? Well we all know what I "was" running.

hopefully my sweet new stock motor will be fine them with.

I sure hope it holds for you Ben.

What other setups could I do with the twins instead of a cheeath?

 

[duratothemax]

GT55 over a GT42, you said you wanted to go big.

Even with a stock LMM charger and nathan's "big" kit you should be good for 800rwhp. I wouldnt bother shooting for any higher hp; nothing is going to be guaranteed reliable above that point.. 800rwhp is ridiculous for a daily driver as is. I dont even remember what 310hp 605 ft lbs feels like at this point.

I'd go with Rob on your tuning. He is good! He hasn't had any blown motors and his truck has A LOT of passes on it! Very drivable on the street too. I have rode in a twined LMM that he tuned and it was very smooth.
Nathans work is very good and his customer service is great

 

[SIKDMAX]

Great to hear righteye, thanks.

I was actually thinking 47/42 Ben haha. May go with Pats HTT he has for sale and nathans big kit, not sure.

The truck will definitely be 'detuned' (750 or so is detuned? LOL ) for the street.

May go with Pats HTT he has for sale and nathans big kit, not sure. .

you will have to have nathan build you something custom. The off the shelf kit wont work with anything but a stock LLY/LBZ/LMM charger.

 

[SIKDMAX]

Agh, bummer. Hmmm. Phone call is needed tomorrow I guess.

 

[stroke250]

not to hijack, but who's running the mpi kit on an lb7 with the stock charger still in place???

tim03lb7, subman was, juice was, Mika was...

 

[stroke250]

this would work then in a stock motor application?

 

[duratothemax]

I dont see why not...just dont run dual cp3's

ben

this is something that hasn't been tested yet as far as I know, but I cant imagine it being worthless , maybe expensive would be a better word for it. I plan on trying this setup someday, i'll post up the results
