24V with compounds

[Jake]

Me and Nick were drivin around earlier and got behind a dodge with some stacks. He blew some smoke and it was on. I kept gettin closer and we saw this sticker on the back window. I got up close enough to read it and it said "Got Twins?". We looked at each other and said "we're f**ked" . We never full out raced but we kept passin other cars and hammerin on it, and he never really pulled away very much, i was keepin up quite well. We pulled off on a side road and BSed for a bit and they were pretty cool. He said it dynoed around 500. Not sure i believe it or not, but he definitely had compounds, i saw it with my own eyes.

Sweet find!

I am sure it did dyno at 500hp. I had an 03 that dynoed 649hp with BR R-700 Twins

How were you keepin up with a twined 24v in a 7.3 with a BLOWN single? haha

[Jake]

Its true, I was in the truck. Atleast the Cummins guys were really cool when we pulled over and chatted with them.


As he was blowing smoke on us, I was trying to read the sticker on his back window. I said, "what does that sticker say?" Jake goes, "Got Twins?"... My reply......Oh Sh1t, were screwed lol

I know that, i just don't know if that particular truck had 500. He did say that he was having fueling issues, his rails were running low at around 3000 rpm

Id believe it. He was probably running a really small twin setup like a stocker/ht3b or something similar. usually those twin are only good for about 550 but they only cost about $1500 too.
