Wow, that's a good way to spend 30 grand or so. Looks pretty bad ass. I was guessing it was for a boat initially. Kind of a strange setup for a truck. Reminds me of the Nelson 8.1L.
Thanks,why strange,,,, just different.
I have a picture on the wall that reads. "Some men see things as they are and say why? I dream things that never were and say why not?" (George Benard Shaw)
Now granted dual blowers are nothing new, but it is pretty cool.
Just a strange setup to me. Dual turbo's I could understand, dual superchargers is just strange. It should be bad ass when it's all done and in the truck. Every time the owner opens the hood people are going to be in awe whether the setup works as planned or not. Very nice work though.

Dual superchargers are done all the time....Remember the Avalanche built by Nelson a few years ago
Yeah, it was one of my comments in the post where I said it was strange. That was one impressive setup. Never did hear anymore about it after that initial video. I'm not saying that they are never done, but it is rare to see it done on anything not in the water. Id say once or twice a year I see something posted with a picture of a twin blown setup, but not much more than that. At 7-10k for 2 blowers, 3-5k for a custom built intake manifold and air inlet, and another 2-3 grand to have it all installed and tuned in I doubt very many will be built. Did you guys run your twin 2300's yet?

This setup should be much more efficient than dual 112's. With a couple of 3.6" pulleys the blowers should be at peak efficiency(70% range) at 6000 RPM crank speed and still capable of near 20 lbs of boost. On top of that is the rather substantial IC core. This is not the final configuration for the inlet box/TB's, should work for picking up groceries though.
Nice work Rick!
