the BD twins should be fine with the injectors i have?................
im little confused someone pmed me and said "the stock injectors work fine on the BD twins" and then someone told me that "the 275 will only support 400hp" ........and "there would be a ton of laggg on the BD twins".........can someone with atleast personal knowledge from owning them or seen the results tell me .........some of there comments make me think about how they feel about other stuff.............for all i know people will start sending me pm saying the intercooler is to keep eggs cold or some kind of stupid crap like that..........

Twins using the same top turbo as a single will and do spool slower. By going with larger injectors you will produce the heat and pressure to help with spoolup as well as spin the large charger efficiently. Guys have been overfueling twins for years but little is heard about underfueling....... Will they work? Yup. But they will work a whole lot better if paired up to a setup matched for them.
As for the headgasket contrary to what was mentioned above O-ringing the head is a better solution than just running studs. Yes some guys are "lucky" enough to get away with just studs and reasonable boost but I have seen more than one studded truck that blew its headgasket with less than 50 lbs boost! Failing to Let the engine get completely warmed up is one of the biggest issues when they go. Also when we are talking about boost, backpressure is just as big a problem (if not more so) with blown gaskets.

AK Ram,
Your setup should be above 350 HP...... I would expect with the twins, TST, and injectors to be around 400-450 minimum. Have you dynoed your setup? Not trying to flame just curious because the guys I know who have similiar setups are all well above 400 with a single turbo.

Backpressure between the turbo and pistons.
