You will definitely see some insane numbers out of this, as long as the stock internals will hold that long. I see your location is Lewisburg (by Williamsport I'm assuming?) Hit me up sometime, as I would love to see this thing in person.

I want the duramax and the allison 6 speed. That is the best combo in the business right now. I think these trucks would take a bit more than 600 hp at the wheels to run a 12. they need to be pushing closer to 900 or 1000 hp if I remember correctly. Gotta compensate for all that weight.

Nope. 600 hp and 100 ft/lbs or more will get you 12's. You gotta remember these guys are coming out of the hole on 4wd at 45-50 psi and are 60 footing stuff we would only dream of. Prime example my buddies powerstroke just under 700 horse and 1400 ft/lbs is a 12.80 truck on all terrain tires. That truck on a full slick all around this year will go low 12's without a doubt. He spins all 4 to the 60 right now

Yeah probably. Launching is everything with those trucks. If you get wheel hop or spin it's tough. I would imagine he was spinning tho. And it could come off the line a little slow if it's single turbo. Logan has trouble getting his to full spool before he lets it go I can only imagine how hard it is for that guy to leave on full boost. That would be one big ass turbo unless he's on propane or nitrous

Ah we're having trouble with the truck right now. Bottom turbo isn't spooling at all due to a faulty wastegate so we're either going external or just running a blow off valve (basically like a wastegate on the charge piping) so we haven't even been seeing the true compound boost yet... Oh I love turbos
I WILL get a video of this truck soon!

I jsut re read your original post... Are you seriously going to run 80PSI? that is crazy dude It is going to sound like a nuclear bomb when it blows open the BOV or the Waste Gate. I can't wait for this video... I'm gonna need a bottle of lotion.
