power has increased under 2000 rpm a lot. all that black smoke i used to have is gone...... now it's getting used. Lugging in fifth gear at 60km/hr and it'll still spool within 5km/hr speed change then it's gone right to 120. Peak boost is only 30 psi but i have the stock injectors in it cause i'm waiting for some 435's. also found out my pump has had it to, won't idle when it's hot anymore. so that aside with stock injectors and a worn pump it's awesome. I can't wait to hook up a trailer. If anyone has ever driven a truck with a smarty and how it affect's your bottom end this what it drive's like now.

Sorry MikeThomas I read your question to fast. I overfilled the oil pan and drilled a 1 1/8" hole. oil came out as i was drilling and brought the files with it.
Then welded it while still in the truck. Take not when you put a bung on that you can still access the oil pan bolts if needed at a later date.

Racerdude 9:This whole set up cost me about a two hundred dollars because most parts were scrap metal or extra parts lying around in the shop.

bgilbert:Where i drilled my whole i only needed about two litres extra.

i think thats the first time i've seen the small turbo feeding the large turbo. Usualy its the other way around. Who cares though as long as it spools fast and wakes up the bottom end.

pwrtipls1 it's not a small turbo feeding a large one. The HE341 is being fed by the 62/80.
