Are those turbos internally wastegated or are you planning on running a couple external wastegates or are you gonna be a badass and just say fuck a wastegate?

Starting with the fuck a wastegate, then if it loads the secondary too much, we will add an external gate from the manifold to the hot pipe. The truck it is going on doesn't currently have big enough sticks, to worry about over spinning the bottom turbo.

i do like the lazy man 3/4-cut  pie cut  :noel:

Reminds me of the lazy man's reducer I used on my EF. Cut 4 notches in a pipe & weld.

Shit looks nice. Don't be lazy with the picture taking, however.

Yeah I don't even on a camera other then my blackberry. The pics were taken two days after by the owner of the truck the twins are going on. I have never been much of a picture taker for anything, so it is tough to get in the habbit, of bugging the wife for hers before I go out and then to actually stop and take some pics. I will try to take more in the future.

You can do it with a 7.3 as well, just costs a bit more...

yea, especially when you have to put so many new parts on it to handle the extra pressure.  it ain't wort it at all if you ask me.  plus you have all that extra room in the engine bay to do what ever the fuck you want with.  there ain't room for shit on my IDI

You can usually find someone selling one of the ATS kits for the IDI's

already have one.  it frees up some of the restriction in the down pipe.  but the ats turbo stuff still ain't shit compared to adding twins to a cummins

That is true. I have never driven one but I have heard a few say that the ATS turbo IDI is stronger than the early stock powerstrokes.

Just talked to Brett and the twin setup got bumped to next weekend. The truck owner had something come up this weekend.

We went to bri's parents for dinner, and I fell asleep on the couch, woke up at like 11:30pm and just went to bed. I was super lame. Got up early the next morning, and drove to Kelowna to see my parents, stayed there a couple days, and then went home.
