Monster Super Twin-Turbo Duramax Ready for Launch!
As the Supercharged Twin-Turbo L5P Duramax sits patiently waiting for its first fire let’s reflect on just what has changed on the engine since it last ran with just the supercharger. As you’ll be able to clearly see it’s not just adding two turbos the engine and seeing what happens. A lot of prep and methodical thought goes into making something that will provide instantaneous power and be able to not destroy itself doing so in the process. A majority of the parts have been reviewed individually, so you’ll find links to them in this “shopping list” of parts that were used to make the engine where it is today:
- Two Precision Turbo 68/70 turbochargers
- Turbo Smart wastegates “Power Gate 60”
