i was gonna see if u are seein a huge power difference with your twin turbos. but everybody saying your only running 8 to 10 psi on the bottom one i guess its about the same huh? i tow also but mine is almost completely stock but wont be after i get a 5 speed so after u accomplish everything where ur satisfied do a post on how it all turns out.

Try turning your star wheel all the way back in, and back out 15 clicks. Slide your AFC housing all the way forward and put your plate a bit forward of center (stock). This may affect performance, but you have to decide with 12 valves if you want a racer or a tower, but there's a sweet spot in there where it gets good for both, but not great at one or the other.

you need to bump the timing more, and get studs, maby o rings? why would you run twins if you didnt plan on running more than 40lbs of boost? that 62 is capable of more than 4o alone. x2 on bigger injetors to get the turbos going. i have a garret ht3b too. make sure your correct on the housings. when i bought mine and did the twins i didnt know much about turbos. and i still had high egts. come to find out the ht3b had a 36 cm housing! i was never lighting the ht3b. nows shes got a 23cm housing and spools faster than my junk super hx40. thats why i got the 62/65/12 coming

i bought the twins cause everybody talk about how cool they run while towing and ive not yet found a single charger that will hold up and keep it cool with very few mods. done to it how cool does your truck run with the 40 and the 3b with the 5x.014 while towing heavy loads how much boost you run with studs with out o-rings

i run hot egts cruising down the road cause of the hx40 with the 16cm housing. but when i light the turbos it cools good. with all my fuel egts are at good numbers. hard to get it over 1200-1300. and ive hit 70lbs of boost a little past half throttle at 2750rpms. it has some left in it
