Silver Bullet boost levels!

So these dual cp3 do not require 40 psi+ of fuel pressure to work properly? I have a FASS 150 and I was concerned I wouldnt be able to get the pressure I needed for dual cp3s. But I have 22 psi @ idle, sounds like I have plenty of fuel for 800rwhp, nice numbers W1cked

BlackBeast,
You have some serious $$ in that truck, no doubt!! After reading all this, my opinion would be the injectors like others have already hinted.
Let the more experienced here correct me, but the 'quality' of the injection event is as important, if not more important than volume. This is one major difference in how the new trucks (3rd. gen) make more power stock than the older ones. Watching the high-pressure numbers might show something, and it may not. I would get back to basics in this area.
Just look at Pourin Diesels videos^ Relatively little smoke, and he is making some power. I know mine will make smoke more than that, but will turn into a grey color now with the new turbo.
Before I would spend more money on a bigger turbo, I would look at your fuel setup. W1cked has different injectors.
I wish you the best.

no, they do not. If you run to much inlet pressure it throws a code.

No, I knew what you said. I just wanted you to have referance point. The HX40 in the picture is a Piers HX40 BTW.
I know what an HX40 can do, been there done that. I ran one many moons ago. I also know what a 66mm turbo can do. Been there done that also (which a SB is).
I can tell you with much confidence that a 71mm Aurora 5000 blows them both away.

I think it all depends on what you do with the truck. I see local guys pull with the a5k and it does the job. Ive seen the one on pourins trk when it was installed, its a big charger.
