New truck and mods - need a little help

New to the site but not the diesel performance world. Have had 3 Duramax powered trucks and a 2nd gen Cummins that were all heavily modded and I just bought a 3rd gen Cummins. I have been doing lots of reading and searching but havent quite found the info I am looking for.

I have been doing some ordering and have some parts on the way. My first questions is in regards to Industrials super phat shaft 66. Will this turbo bolt up to my stock downpipe without issues with the use of the stock dodge cast elbow? Also, I will be running a Smarty/MP8 stack with this setup...will I still need the boost fooler or will the programmers boost fool for me?

My mods list will be as follows: 2005 CCSB leveled on 35s

(I already have a fully built trans...triple disc, clutches, shift kit, billet input and output etc. so that is not a problem)
Industrial super phat shaft 66
Smarty/MP8 stack
intake, exhaust, gauges are a given
Raptor 150gph

What kind of power numbers should I expect with this setup? Also, if I can cut a decent 60 ft. time any idea on 1/4?

Will I need CP3 mods and nozzles to run this setup reasonably?

Sorry for all the questions guys but this is a new ballgame for me. I am used to the Duramax where a guy can run 12 second quarter miles all day long with a built trans, lift pump and good EFI tune.

Any help is appreciated.

To be truthful, I have the same truck you have and with just these mods I ran mid 12's...

Built Trans
64/12 turbo
Walbro pump set at 19psi
Smarty REVO TNT
TST-PMCR49
29.95" tires

On 35's I ran 13.1 all day long...The tires make a huge difference. And cause a ton of wear unlike the stock tires!

I usually like to race running the same setup that I run daily. So, I'm looking at low 13s if I can dial in a decent launch. Thanks for the reply.

You are going to have a hard time spooling that turbo without sticks and at least a bag of parts on the cp3. Daily driving will be a task. You would be better off with a good 64/13 or 64/14. Even with upgrades to the fuel system, on an auto the 66 is a bit large to daily drive.....

If you can get a TST PMCR49...Do it! Definately the way to go over the MP8. You can dial in so many more options.


IMHO...this is what I would do over again...
