My EXACT thoughts on the subject, couldnt agree more.
Ive never really agreed with the single idea. Thats not to say it cant be made to work well, it just hasnt been done yet.
I personally dont see it ever being a great working setup but I do have very limited knowledge on the subject.

I think the right setup could work and spool GREAT, but I don't think it's been found just yet. I think the VGT idea is great if a person is looking for the spool up aspect, but someone will have to make it work. That 71mm that Dustin is using is big enough to make good power with, but it's location is less than desirable LOL
Obviously MPD and WOP have kits out there, but it's going to take some real world experience with both kits to figure out how good they really are.

Or you can go 12.3 with the 310 on stock turbo's and almost stock fuel. Either way works.
and go 5/10's faster than everybody else who has had similar setup forever? name anyone else has come remotely close to that and what you say makes sense..... why does red93 in a reg cab almost identicle setup , same tune, etc... run 12.50's ?? also weighs about 700lbs less. go figure right.

Me too, the compound vs single doesn't appeal to me. Especially when you start getting into the bigger stuff.
I swear I can repeat those stats in my sleep too. Jeff''s truck has been lightened to "racing weight" you can't *** with that!

I guess that apology a few months back wasn't sincere after all. Go figure right.
Say what you want. It's a lost cause at this point and it's the reason I could care less about racing anymore. It was fun until I accomplished something and most everyone went against me. Not worth it to me.
Carry on. Sorry for the derail.

lol..... nothing can replace the fact what you did is repeatable, for anyone with a comprable setup. when i said sorry to you, it was for being a dik to you, not for questioning what you did. others have smilar setups and are still running 12.80's on the 310.... settlemire definitely makes more power than a stock truck and still doesnt have your trap speed, whatever you did, replicate it and sell it, you will get rich.

All I did was go out and make some passes at an NHRDA event. Nothing more, nothing less. As my 60 foot got better, the times got better. Pretty simple if you ask me. I can't really take it beyond that. My setup is what is. Sucks for me I guess.....lol

the 66 works just fine, its in its test stages right now and with a couple of months im sure they will be great on these trucks, so what if you lose some driveability, its not the end of the world, you can daily drive my truck just fine with almost no smoke and i have a 72, my truck was a test mule and i love it. and get great mileage, run cool, not have back pressure issues and make great power

its def not for everyone, but dont go putting it down and saying its not worth it till you give it some time
I;ve done the single turbo thing... im back to compounds again for a reason. Do i think a single is a terrible idea, hell no, it seams to work for some, but i wouldnt venture to say its the most fun thing i have ever owned.
IF i owned a reg cab that was a play truck/drag truck, single would probably work well. but for heavy trucks i dont think its that much fun, course im high altitude and i was on a pretty big turbine wheel compared to what MPD is working on, so the difference might be in that.
Jeff, just go to the track and run your time again, i find it wierd that you picked up 2 mph at the track, not saying it was you that did it, im just saying it was wierd. Im going to leave it at that tho, im not starting another pissing match.

mike what would you suggest for me to reach my goal? ps could i get away with just doing a tq converter upgrade or is a whole trans needed
Mike@MPD
New member
I think the 66 would be a good setup for 650 to the wheels, i would def do a trans, thats just my opinion, the kits work great on craigs truck, hes on 35s as well

what 1/4 mile times can i expect at this power level? can you pm me a price on the 66 kit please

craigs best was 12.42@108, that was on water meth, but, the water meth didnt do anything for power as it didnt make a difference on the dyno at all
