Twin turbo hi mount for trucks. Comments needed!!!
Here are some pics, and we are interested in seeing how many people may want this type of set up.
We have had customers ask if we where every going to do a twin turbo set up. My first thought and question is why, a single can handle what 90% of trucks out there need, right
.
Our single Street Stalker kit comes with a t76 which put JJs truck into the deep 11's I beleive.
So we have been kicking this around for a little while. And seeing how the Avalanche was still in the air, I figure lets take a closer look at this.
So we build a beta unit, trial fit stuff. Log manifold with a T4 flange, and 3" downpipe.
This TWIN setup may be offered as an upgrade kit to the INTRO and Street Stalker. (if we can find the interest in building this set up.)
Again we are just testing the waters right now.
The 07 trucks can have a custom IC build with dual 2.5 inlets at the bottom and a single 3" out the top. The exit point would be the same as the single stage IC for the 07 stuff. You can see it at the bottom right.
The throttle body connection goes over the top of the turbos inlet.
The turbo rides a little lower then the Passenger side unit does, this aids in getting around the steering and missing the top radiator hose. You can also see the IC outlet. The zip ties are just holding it up while we build a little bracket so not to stress the coupler any.
You can see the wiring harness laying across the turbo. No biggy, off the compressor housing a clean support bracket will be built to hold those wires above the turbo about 3 inches. So no worries about melting anything. And we also will include more heat sleeving to protect all wiring and lines around anything hot.
Spark plugs are easy to get to and no plug wires burning either. That harness on the altenator bracket will be moved forward away from the turbine housing.
Downpipe will end under the truck, you would have to have an exhaust shop finish it out and make the final connections. We added a Vband clamp at the bottom to aid in that part. The brake lines do need to move towards the drivers side about 2 inches which gives tons of clearance around the DP. Again heat sleeving will be provided for those as well.
Pricing has not been figured yet, seeing how we are in beta mode.

That large harness will have its own support bracket built to hold it off the turbo.
If the blower does not work out for you give us a call.
