Twin Turbo Setup
Any of you guys ever thought about a twin turbo setup for a 7.3? Getting ready to attempt to design a system that is twin turbo (non-wastegated) pushing between 30 to ??lbs of boost. With a 316L Stainless Steel exhaust manifods, stainless steel intake for the IDI diesels. Im getting ready to rebuild my motor to take up to 65lbs of boost on a 7.3L IDI. Let me hear your thoughts!

A twin turbo setup is really a waste when you think about it. You can buy a single turbo that can put out that much boost. David Lott's truck comes to mind.
The better idea of two turbos is as a compound setup. One enormous turbo for high air flow, and a smaller turbo for quick spool at low rpm's to minimize turbo lag caused by using a larger unit. This simply makes the truck streetable, but has no real benefit when racing.

if you called banks with a question about dodge parts 10 years ago, the answer you got was "we don't do dodge" and then they hung up on you.
banks only started with the dodge parts a few years ago. for over 30 years, banks was strictly ford and chevy.

Bash Banks all you want, but he has produced some powerful vehicles and he's been selling a ton of aftermarket goodies. He makes a lot more money than I do, and his product has a pretty solid reputation.
Apparently Gale Banks is doing something right.
