Here let me break down all the bull**** coming out of your mouth.

1. KRC does not exist
2. KRC was horrible, and i would never recommend anyone to them with Marty in charge.
3. Turbo Lag... LMFAO!
4. "keep all turbos out of "trail scene"
5. going 4k to get boost with turbo

Thats 5, not 1. over 3 = diarrhea of mouth

Now your going to say "how do you know KRC sucks blah blah" one do a google search they have almost as bad rep as Hennessy does. Turn around time, ****ing peoples **** up, wrong builds, wrong parts, i have personally delt with the dumbass.

Turbo lag is a myth, only in the ricer world cuz they think the bigger the turbo the better on a 4cyl, sames goes for a 8cyl

Scenes/Clicks are for church and high school not when it comes to vehicles, money = anything in this business

4k... really, so even with a 4k stall and high shift points at maybe 6500 on these motors (and thats pushing it to the limit) everything below 4k is trash and sluggish? Either you have a damn Mack truck turbo on your truck, or you know nothing about turbos.

Like i said i call bull**** when i see it, and god forbid if this guy does go to KRC (which doesn't exist) and is under a huge change over gets screwed and run around for months to years... it took Bad_Banana (Chris) almost 2.5 years to get his truck back. Please dont let him be another miserable customer.

Im simply fixing your mistakes, giving the guy good information, not bull****. No high horse here, im in a lowered dak

Now what bs are you going to toss back to clean up all this diarrhea, its getting pretty bad someone might have to run to walmart and pick up some more TP.
even with krc being bought out he can still get a rear mount from someone else, i was simply stating that they sell one.

i'm pretty sure turbo lag does exist. then why is there 2 step. to build boost off the line. other wise you wouldnt spool up intill a certain rpm...as well as brake boosting. or no lift shift, all to keep boost up

and there definelty is cliques in cars; trucks, muscle cars, offroad, street, imports, etc. the damn dakota is a clique. do you not know what the definition of a clique is? "shares common interests"

and why would he want high shift points and a 4kstall on a offroad vehicle.

Out of the woodstock they came...
being around builds, helping with builds, dealing with the issues, and knowing people with correct info is a bad thing?

Yeah so i havent turbo'd my truck big whoop. I still understand how they work and when im ready to do it ill know how to do it correctly and have help from people that have been doing it for way longer then i have.

Point is, his info is wrong. Get over it, and go back to your corner.

btw i said "sound like moron" not you are a stupid moron, but i guess you covered what i was thinking. Thanks.

*shakes head* alright man you know it all continue to give bad info, what comes around goes around.

God forbid if someone gives correct info here anymore. So glad im not a mod here anymore to clean up this BS.

PS: i was going off what you said about 4k till boost comment... it went over your head i guess. Doesn't surprise me. Carry on everyone. Sorry to bother, ill just stay to my build thread once a month.

Hey man, atleast i know you know whats going on. When you going to be able to meet up again and shoot the ****, you need to make it out to Keller's one night, damn good food, and cheap beer. Can't wait to see the beast with the new cams.

Anyone want an opinion on me ask this guy, he met me, Im far from an *******, but when i see bull**** i call it out. I know what its like to get the run around as i have been there done that. Trying to save other people the hassle is all i care about, and MONEY! Since mopar is not cheap and the parts are hard to find. Any good info is what im all about.

Either way its all good. Maybe i went a little overboard, but when i know someone is wrong and continues to argue is a big pet peeve.

O well.

I never said it was a bad thing, I was just implying that seeing someone do something, or hearing them talk about what theyve done is vastly different than doing it yourself and getting that experience first hand. Maybe hear-say isn't the best word, but its the best one I could come up with.

I never said your info was wrong, I was just pointing out that the way you present yourself on this forum time and time again leaves something to be desired (and I say that as a fellow member, not as a moderator, seeing as though you don't fall under my section... thankfully). I merely said there is a better way to disagree with another member than attacking them.

His info is not neccessarily wrong. A person can have a turbo setup that works how he states. I'm not saying its a good idea, just that its possible.
And once again, I'm speaking as a fellow member, not a moderator... something I'm very much allowed to do... so I'll go back to my corner when a question needs answering or moderating needs to be done in my corner.

Don't put words in my mouth. I was merely exaggerating what you said to get a point across.

I did not mean to start all of this. Like i was just lookin for some advice lol.
But thunder your makin it sound like all i do is off-road like this is also my everyday truck that i drive to school, to work, and to do all the other ****. I just want a cheap turbo kit that will get the job done to start me off. Like i can always upgrade the turbo and everything.

Lol... you didn't start anything sideASS, User did.

And a rear mount turbo would be the cheapest setup. If you want a turbo and want to do it right, you need to take the word cheap out of your vocabulary and open up your wallet, cause its going to be expensive.

In his defense, you did make it a point to say you didn't want a rear mounted turbo because you use your truck for "a lot of offroading and mudding." So it may not be all you do with your truck, but it sounds to me like its a big factor in what kind of performance setup you want.

I agree with you, i admit sometimes i over react on certain things, but its for a reason. Like i said i have been through alot with these trucks and have done tons and tons of research on what to do and what not to do, and how to do it. Never go cheap with a turbo setup, IMHO like you said "open your wallet" do it right and have it done professionally if you have never done it. Which is why i will be having experts help me with my install. Ill be doing it, but them over my shoulder.

And i know how hard it is to post an opinion on things here while being a mod, i use to be one. You get heat all the time. I didn't even notice you where a mod until you said something. The main reason im not a mod anymore is because i voiced my opnion about the TOTM crap on this site, how it was rigged and not fare to suvs, dakotas, jeeps. I got cocky about it and got demoted, right after it was all changed. So pretty much i stood up got it changed in return of being demoted. Fine with me, i have my own site to run.

Either way some of the info he said was pure bs, 4k to produce boost?, KRC = trash i would never recommend anyone to them after all the stories and personally dealing with them. You never know what your going to get and when your going to get it, or how much "extra" its going to cost you. Rear mount IMO is not the best for these trucks, yes if your cheap, but do it right and spend the money, we have more then enough room in our bays to have a BADASS turbo setup on these trucks.

Wow... you shocked me with that post, User. I didn't know what I was going to read when I clicked on this thread, but I wasn't expecting that. All I can say now is thank you for toning it down.

And I know very well that you've been through a lot with these trucks! Your last R/T was easily the nicest one I've ever seen, let it RIP, and I haven't been keeping up with your current build, but I'm sure the new truck is just as nice. Anyway, my point is, I know you have a lot of good information to share, I just wish you'd share it with less of an attitude. Thats really all I had to say from the beginning... I just like to sometimes fight attitude with an equal attitude... it seems like it might get the point across better to some people.

I've been thinking about twins for my 4.7 for awhile now. The mechanical part, and all the fabrication and install would be the easy part. I wont be starting the project untill i have a better understanding of the newly found fuel requirments ( Upgraded fuel injectors, fuel pump) and tuning that would need to be done, after the turbos would be installed. Also, timeing would probably need adjusted as well. I'm new to the 4.7 and know little about it but am not planning on making a boost Monster. Two smaller A/R turbos 60-70 ish, possibly 8-10 lbs or so.

I'd just like to have a better understanding of the aftermarket parts support for the engine before tackling the build. Like i said prior, the install is the easy bit, it is what it is, it does what it does, but things such as fueling, timming, improper computer tuning, could make all that hard work and money, go up in smoke. I also agree that turbos best belong in the engine bay, turbos under a truck are lame. Now turbos, and snorkels would be cool.
