Question Twins with a Supercharger

Browsing Ebay- Saw 155 hp sticks for $330- decided to check it out Seller claims to have twins and a whipple suprechager:


Q: As I understand your description, you gained 3.5 mpg going from stage 4 to 5 injectors? I would love to know what performance mods you are running that can do that. I have a stock 99 dodge cummins dually and can only manage 15 mpg at a near steady 75 mph after a factory ecm upgrade to help with the mileage/power and lower 3.55 highway gears. If I purchased your injectors, no doubt there would be smoke with significant application of throttle and without increasing the boost. But do you have any idea what kind of mileage I could expect with moderate throttle? Do you have other mod stages (2,3,4) that you sell? Finally, do these stage 5 injectors actually produce an extra 155 horsepower without any mods or is this in conjuction with specific mods. Thanks for your time. Answered on Jan-06-05
A: it is twin turbo hx55/hx45 with a whipple supercharger in between the turbos(for instant throttle response) which has its own watercooled aftercooler system,twin mallory 140 fuel pumps,two duel staged nitrous systems/propane injection,with 100%nitro methane added though nos foggers,120 copper head gasket with twin oringed block and single oringed head valved and ported to the max,has modified 4 ring arias pistons ceramic and teflon coated by swaintech,steel crank from haisley's with girdle kit,trans/converter by suncoast,all bearings and inserts are coated with antifriction materal,rods and crank coated with oil resistant coating.exhaust manifold has 12 stainless ceramic coated pipes intergrated into the primary turbo,currently running dd's cam,it idles with 5.5 lbs boost and builds 95 lbs at full boost 12.1/121 mph quarter.just a guess around 3-5 mpg increase on a stock 3500 and i do have all stages.yes they will add 155 true dyno hp to a bone stock engine. thanks
