compound turbos arn't twins? as in twin = two? a big turbo and small turbo is two turbos or twin turbos (1+1=2). You should go find your elementary teacher and kick her in the box

this system is what I will copy, its the only one that acually looks like it was ment to be on a 6.0l.

when i think of 'twins', i think of the coors light commercials where its two IDENTICAL twins, but i guess since you can have fraternal twins and paternal twins, what you're saying makes sense.  just a different perception of the word i guess

Now I know why no one twins these trucks, what a cluster fuck.

I found a little info on the truck, like that it is a stock block and heads, but with hypermax rods, and some low CR pistions.

He is obviously running some big sticks in there. Do you know what turbo's he is running? I am sure with the couple stages of nitrous you could get yours well over 650hp too

What point do you need to put rods in that motor? Do you know if they just milled the stock pistons to drop the CR?

I was not aware of the rods and pistons, but I dont have much time for research as of late. the artical I read there was no mention of that. I dont know when rods are needed, I do know that the 6.0l guys make fun of the duramax guys for there wimpy rods and that its not a common thing to do.

I just read a quick thread on comp d, and that is what it said, however it had no mention of the turbo's used. I was lead to believe that the owner of the truck was the one that posted those specs about the hypermax rods and low compression pistons. The two stages of nitrous was posted previous to that, by another user but was never disputed.

I know in the dmax much over 550hp and you are living on the edge of the rods. 1200hp+ has been made on a stock 12v cummins bottom end, but guys have also bent them at ~900hp, typically guys start to think about milling out pistons, and billet rods around the 800hp area.
