Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Got Some Twin Questions...

[BLively]

im looking for some answers and opinions to a few twin turbo questions i have. . i want to get rid of the hx35 and stick a 62/14 on top of my 3B. what do you think of this combo? next question is, if i do this, who makes the hot pipes that i could use for these 2? i dont have easy access to a MIG, so id like it to be already made. . also do you think that this will help with EGTs? im not too impressed with the temps im runnin now. . just want to get them down a little. .

Don't know about you suggested set up, sounds good though. Got some questions about your Edge Drag Comp/Smarty stack. What do you like and dislike about it? Is you 95gph Fass enough to keep up? How smooth is your Valair clutch, a bit jumpy I'm just guessing. What kind of milage do you get and is there much smoke? You've got a set up I'd like to have but I have to depend on using mine for alot of hauling so I can't get quite as "fun" as you have. How much did you ht3b cost? Sorry for all the questions, you've got a nice set up! THanks, JCH!!!

well with the comp/Smarty stack, theres really nothin that i can think of that i dont like... i like the adjustability of the Drag Comp, and the feuling of the Smarty. i think i do need to upgrade to the FASS 150, because when i get on it really hard it sounds like im starving for fuel... the clutch is great for just everyday driving and hotrodding around, but i do not recommend it for towing, unless you want to make weekly appointments to the chiropractor, lol! it is chattery. well mileage wise, i need to do some more tuning, i believe im getting around 14 miles to the gallon, but this truck really never has gotten the best mileage. and yes, this thing will smoke! i picked the twins up, and fixed and replaced, and added other parts for about 1200 bucks. thats the main reason i went to twins cuz i found them so cheap!

It might be starving for fuel because of the H. O. pump. They don't flow as much fuel as the S. O. pumps. Is your fuel pressure high enough when your WOT? If it is, then I'd be leaning towards the inj. pump
