I would LOVE to see some pics of the 5" exhaust system.
SrtBrad said:Very nice setup Justin. Would or could you use the Mofo headers with your setup? Also what kind of engine upgrade do you recommend to fully unleash the turbo? What is the max boost this monster can dish out? You talk about upgraded turbos as well. What are the specs for the upgraded turbo? Also do you plan on making a dual setup in the future?

belgiumbarry said:ok, you can shoot me.. ( over the pond ) but is this not a expensive alternative in comparison with the ROE SC ? ok, if you want to rebuild your engine.... but isn't that with all blowers/turbo's... ? :dontknow:
Isn't a stock engine gonne take abuse as far as " safe drivable" from any SC or turbo ? :dontknow:
Stinker said:Barry you are correct, you do need a fully forged engine to run big boost, not just rods and pistons, eventually things can come apart without billet mains an such.
That would run you around 14k
Justin did a helluva job:rock: a touch big on the turbo in my opinion a 76mm or a tad smaller would give the same results and be tons more responsive.
Justins kit would be awesome on a stock motor, but remember guys you can only safely make 700 or so on the stock internals before something eventually gives way.
Dave T(BADVENM) said:You can run the same boost from a blower as the turbo but the turbo will make more power at the same levels.
A friend of mine has a Viper that was running a Roe 10# system on it. He recently finished a DIY system from SVS...I think its a twin turbo system. Anyway, at the same boost levels he's now making about 20 percent MORE power then compared to the Roe system with water/meth.
The only problem we still have no matter what system we use is a lack of traction and/or tire/wheel options. Once that is solved the skies the limit.
Also, did Justin or Joe develop some type of system that will limit the boost in the first and second gears then ramp it up so you can at least launch the truck without blowing the tires at the line...something similar to what the big horsepower Vipers are doing?

I'm jealous of you nownewmexicoviper said:I rode in and drove the beast last night it is not lacking in responsiveness one bit.

no it has headersRam From Hell said:You don't use headers with this setup. It's a custom exhaust system built to feed the single turbo from both exhaust banks using custom manifolds.
but have you seen a roe make the kind of power mine does? :burnout:BurntRubber said:I'm jealous of you now
With the ROE power will kick in right off idle, max boost at 1500 rpm's.
