Twin Turbo's, Big Power, for Towing. Who do I Call???

Ross3031 · Dec 4, 2015

Looking to upgrade power for better towing. Twin turbo setup is what im looking for (unless you guys tell me something different). Anyone have any suggestions? Best place to call?

Thanks...

I think twin turbos would be a little over kill unless you have a built motor. Dual fuelers and a s369 will get you in the 650 ball park and tow just fine from what I've read. I know a s365 on stock 13 fuel gets the job done no problem. Also if you go big power the transmission will be next on the list, if you beat the crap out of it. May also hit up "jcain" on here or Dan "disteiler" don't think I spelled that correct, Anyways. Jon "jcain" has a 13 that runs very nice and tows plenty, and Dan has a built 13 and tows a ton, hit them up for some real world information. Mike at no limit and Morgan at Midwest would also be on the top list of people to talk to, and should also be able to get you squared away with any parts you might need. Good luck.

Internet budget or real budget?

How heavy will you be towing? My dads 6.7 has an elite turbo kit with their 64.7 Vgt with gear head tuning and with loads 20-25k the turbo gets a little laggy. It's not too bad but anything bigger wouldn't be fun to tow with Imo. Everyone has a different opinion on what is fine for towing so you will get a different answer from every person lol

Lol internet budgets are always fun to watch

My s475 over stock towed like a monster with low egts. And that's a cheap turbo

It was until I pushed the limits with tuning.

Is anyone even doing a compound kit anymore? Seems like everyone just kinda accepts a single as the end all be all for 6.7's. And yes I know stock rods and compounds don't mix, consider that horse dead and beaten!

I'm about to put a gtx4202R in front of my stock 15 turbo. 80 horse tow file. And run it. If I loaded a nasty race file then the bottom end would hate it, I only want useable towing power though. I don't care about all out breaking dyno power.

curious what you need more power to tow? I roll at 28k lbs and my tuned 15 will pull the biggest hills I have seen on the east coast at 3/4 throttle doing 75mph. These trucks pull better then most medium duty and some heavy duty trucks would with the same load.

I am wondering as well. Seems like a guy might want to do a gear change....
At some point, that might be wiser choice to maintain safety, longevity, drivability and less issues than stacking turbos. If you can't tow your weights with a properly configured 6.7, then maybe you need a medium duty truck to do it safely?

100% agree

I mean in theory sure compounds would be way cooler on egt's but honestly it seems like you're trying to use Cummins logic on a Powerstroke, a single Vgt with gears and you're good.
