What compound setup for 1000-1100whp

DDing 1000hp will cause issues. Keep it around 750ish.
x2. not many motors are gonna last very long if you always at 1000+. mine stays at 725-750 on tune 1 everywhere i go.
Totally agree, but running a heavy truck at those HP levels is going to be a very time limited event. obviously Max'd Out makes north of 1300 hp to the wheels now, but even at the 1000 to 1100 level an engine will not last that long. White Out will make that much, but I don't ever turn it up for more than a few seconds at a time, and you can not drive a truck on the street with those HP levels, unless you reall like being in the ditch.
600hp with no low end torque in the tuning gets squirrelly. I couldn't imagine trying to drive a twinned 1000hp truck around town.
Should I even put the money into it if its just gonna grenade within a year or two? Im sure this combo is gonna make big torque especially if it spools up early in the rpm's. You guys think with tuning, some of the torque could be pulled out down low so she doesnt die?
If you don't have the money to build it a second time do rebuild it it the first time
if you wanted a low to mid 11 second truck 750-850hp a solid build should hold for awhile however once you cross that mark all bets are off. Do you plan on putting a roll bar in it? I don't under stand the desire for a 1000hp street truck... Street tires in 4wd aren't really going to hold that much power anyway. Let me tell you first hand a 700hp street truck with low torque lots the piss out of the tires from a dead stop.
Currently have a s475 over my stocker with 40over injectors so I know traction sucks up to about 50-60mph but in 4wd it hooks up great!
Its even worse the bigger you go. Try breaking your tires loose at 80mph with a big set of twins
My build has 50k miles with 20k of that towing. 300+ low 12 high 11 passes at 115mph, 3 half mile runs wide open. All this was done at 8000-8700lbs depending on the day. Ask Mr. Sickdiesel how I drive on the street. My smallest tune is over 700rwhp and that's my tow tune. I daily drive it on 800+.
That being said, it developed an issue at world finals, using 1.5 quarts of oil in 12 passes. Towed my trailer home from texas with it, and it's sitting at Adrenaline Performance's shop waiting for the motor to come out this week. We think it is an oil ring. Will know soon.
But as everyone is saying, if you can't afford to build it twice, build it once and don't turn it up over 700hp. Have a good shop build it and don't be cheap on parts. If it is an oil ring on my truck, that sucks that a $20 part took me down. Oh well, we will build it stronger and faster......I hope.
Yes, it spools very fast for a turbo that big, faster than S472 and A5K. The decision to go/stay with the vgt on Brett's truck was simple, didn't want to give up its street manners since he still drives it on the street alot and I was more than sure I could do both for him and we more than succeeded. Anything more than 750hp on the street is usually not safe. I have had the pleasure of doing quit a few 1000hp street driven trucks and it just turns into how fast can you start a 4x4 drift, pointless and unsafe as hell but sure is fun, lol!
