Looks like an excellent build. I am pumped to hear how Tow+ setup does with a handshaker!!!

Thanks, Im really hoping this does well on a manual! I really wanted to cut down on the lag which is part of the reason i wanted to get both turbos and both are billet wheels. Im also thinking about putting some turbo blankets on as well to help out some more but i really haven't made up my mind yet. I just dont really know how much they help, if much at all with lag. And after hearing about your build with the 71 and how good it ran I was going to do the same but then the 72 came out so i HAD to go that route(thanks Elite)!

Yeah, for us, anything that reduces lag is huge. IMO it was a very good idea to do both turbos. If the Tow+ was available when I did mine, that is definitely the route I would have gone!!! Based on what I have read, the 72 spools really good so with the addition of the VGT this should be a h#ll of a setup. I'm really looking forward to seeing the results.

A little update. The boost controler showed up the other day! And now the last thing to this puzzle is some shiny turbos! I'm starting to get anxious. And Brooks i think the intake will help out especially on your truck being it has a single, i think the less restriction on the intake side will help on the single setup as far as lag.

I'm going to do the Tow power X setup instead. The stage 2 option i believe it is. Where the wastegate dumps into the atmosphere to drive it harder.

I love my tow x setup! I gated to the downpipe though. If you need the wastegate piping I've got mine that I didn't use I'll sell you. Are you staying stock fuel?

Yeah im staying stock fuel. For now anyhow. I really dont plan on adding more for awhile. How is your setup running for you? I cant find much info on them really. I see 3 videos of corbins truck but thats it. I'm really stoked to get the chargers on but im still waiting on them to show up. I guess precision is a little backed up at the moment.

And i wasnt really sure if i shoud gate to the dp but Tadd thinks it will help to drive it harder since i am on stock fuel. And i already have the pipe for the gate, or i would have picked up yours. Hows the spool up by the way?

Spool up is good maybe a second on lag then it's gone. Ya precision is way backed up from what I've heard
