Triples for IDP race truck built by MPD

[Matt]

Most of the heat is coming from the secondary (valley charger) so if you are only using one intercooler, I would definately do it just like they did. Fwiw most triple turbo duramaxs do it the same.

 

[JDub]

Are you guys Arc welding the intercooler pipes? I wouldn't think hose clamps would seal the boots on the atmospheres?

 

[jdgleason]

No a/c?! lol

 

[Spindrift]

Was there a particular reason why someone made the decision to go with a modified log manifold as opposed to a true header?

 

[roachie]

I have never found stainless T's like that before. I couldn't convince you to pm me the supplier of them could I? I built custom SS sched 40 manifolds for my Continental with a 6.0. Need to be redone, too much back pressure and look like poop!

Tada.

aftermarket header have had issues with cracking and exhaust leaks.

I'm looking to design and build a pair that works. I think the jury is still out on whether or not the HP gained in a turbo application will be worth the expense of good materials and fabrication.

No arc it's called no time and a guy said he could tig weld and couldn't the new pipes are tig welded and have t bolt clamps
Hose clamps were last minute..

Yes because we have them on a few trucks and they work and work well

It's a race truck lol

 

[SleeperDuty]

How much boost out of the 64's? And what injectors are in it.

 

[SIX_OHH]

Whats up with the fuel side of things?

Tada.

I lied I did see them in that, but thanks for trying. At $36 each they can keep them. I found some others and a couple vendors on here pm'd me with them too. Now my header is going to be bitchin, not sh!tty!

They look damn good by my opinion!

 

[amarillo250]

good work guys. How is your availability for me in October?

For triples?!

 

[blackbetty13]

Am I the only one that noticed the guy get right in the way of the exhaust, and then suddenly moved out of the way lol. (second vid)

How do you define, "work well"?

Dyno before and after, strip before and after...?

Were the heads ported?

 

[Craig@MFI]

well a normal 6.0 with stock exhasut manifolds cant even think anout spooling a 66/74/.91ar t4 primary turbo and with our stainless manifolds it can spool that charger with no problem

We will have true before and after data here soon when our order of flanges gets cut

 

[Mike@MPD]

well since these are only on two different trucks, with completely different setups, its really hard to get a good dyno comparison, spoolup is greatly different on whitey from the stock manifolds. Erics truck made 62x on fuel with the old setup and just changing the turbos and manifolds it made 742 on a smaller tune and spooled as quick as stock. So its really hard to say how much the really do work, but from what i can see they do work extremely well and i will be putting them on my truck shortly so we will see how much that helps
