i was not giving advice. I am quite sure I didn't give him any info he hasn't known for quite a long time. My point of making the statement was I feel it is a great move. I don't see any reason for supercharging especially on a vehicle you would like to drive on the street occationally.
I love this truck and everything he has done is amazing. But in my eyes I always thought "why not turbo" especially since originally it was supposed to be more street then race.
I guess my original statement should have been simple. " I like the move to turbo" then you wouldn't think I was trying to instruct the guy who has a large budget and great knowledge of what he is doing.

If you're going to be giving unsolicited advice, stick to something that maybe you have a single shred of an idea about... Like home made throttle bodies and side pipes... This is his build thread, pretty sure he's got it under control no matter which route he decides to take.

Twin pumps are needed on some applications, but one thing does suck when fuel delivery is an issue; which pump is weak?
Don't have time to search the thread, but what does your fuel system consist of?
Lines, size, config, etc?
At 30psi I'm sure your setup is putting a beating on the fuel system. At your level you can never have enough fuel.
Maybe a mechanical pump might be an option.

Back on topic... I'm sad to hear you're going turbo. I mean turbo's are awesome no doubt about that, but this was something special and unique. Didn't seem like you were lacking any power that's for sure...
good luck though, seems like you need somewere to put your money my pockets are open to donations

And another Procharger build goes down..lol. This is a killer build and I would love to have seen the end results but I am sure the turbo setup will be just as awesome.
You going twins or big single? If I were you I would switch over to a beltdrive pump and ditch those electrics. Your new problem would be too much pressure lol.
Can't wait to see the new build.

You are talking about 10 psi.not 30+ psi.
