The LAST Step… Compound Turbos🔥I The Road to 600HP

[@creatorluxe]

13:45 Wow I can't believe you'd compromise the integrity of the frame like that Haha jk 😂 The truck looks great Tim!

[@decentgarage]

Someone had to do it! You're awesome man!

[@adamyoder8771]

Not much of a topper guy myself, but I'm glad you like it! Please keep the content coming!👍👏👌

[@decentgarage]

Thanks man!

[@bcbloc02]

Everyone says the Dodge first gen frames are weak anyway so its for certain a death trap now. LOL I like my over under turbo setup better as I think its cleaner but man fitting that baby in is a chore! It probably makes about 400hp with the current injectors in it but the fact it won't crack 1100F egt and burns crystal clean is awesome.

[@decentgarage]

I know I'm going to have a lot more tuning to do but after this event I'll dial it in for driveability. Over under does look clean but I've heard it's a pain to get them in. Thanks Brian!

[@DAKOTANSHELBY]

@bcbloc02 Brian, what a nice surprise to find you here. I enjoy your channel with all the machinist content. Yes, very familiar with your Cummins swapped Dodge Crew Cab too. BTW, haven't seen a video upload from Steve in several months. Hope he is well. Im going to Arnfest at last weekend of Sept. Will see K. Rucker there also. Take care. Carl - West Michigan

[@jordanbarakat7288]

Not sure why every one claimes that I’ve got a rust 1st gen wrecker and it will pick the front wheels off the ground with real heavy trucks and the frame is thine in some spots and hasn’t flinched. I think there really well built

[@shmes9]

The 6 in frame is totally different than the 8in frame

[@bcbloc02]

@@shmes9 My crew cab has the shorter frame and yet still has had 0 issues even when I hauled 6000lbs in the bed. The people that say the Dodge frames are weak really don’t know what they are talking about. That being said most people don’t realize there were about 24 different frames for the first gen trucks. Obviously some are heavier and stronger than others.

[@brcron007]

A Topper is Great to have. On my daily driver dodge for 15 years. 👍👍👍 Looks Great on the OG ! 👍

[@ngelemental2274]

13:43 your compromising the integrity of the frame by doing that!!!

[@h.h.legacydiesel6724]

This should do the trick, real nice kit And a great install. Way to go. 👍 ✌🏻🧡 🇨🇦. 😊

[@decentgarage]

Thanks 👍

[@nathenthompson4276]

Great video. Can’t wait to see how it performs! On a side note, off topic. I just finished a hydroboost conversion on my truck, I followed a thread from one of the guys. Used a pick n pull 1 ton van booster. Amazing the difference. Just thinking you might need some more whoa, with the new go.

[@decentgarage]

Absolutely! I've gotta do the rear axle and suspension on the OG and then it'll be time for hydro boost. I already have everything for it

[@Really-AintBuyn-nit]

Black bedliner coating on the topper. Ever considered Cerakote on your turbos?

[@decentgarage]

Yeah, I'll probably put most everything this fall and get stuff cerakoted/powder coated

[@bigmurph1447]

I have compounds on my 12v what a world of difference it makes just much better to drive and tow with. I just installed dynomite diesel stage 3 injectors in it that made a huge difference to.

[@decentgarage]

I can't wait to feel the difference 😁

[@michaelreams2922]

Like the topper. Especially the hump top style.

[@JohnMccartyHTD4life]

Yes I like toppers to but they have to look look right for the truck and flow right to look good to me

[@decentgarage]

What do you think about this one? I think it's a great fit

[@mutantryeff]

I switched to Stage 8 locking manifold bolts. Well worth the money. I also have a stainless manifold.

[@decentgarage]

I totally didn't even think about running the stage 8 locking ones!

[@mutantryeff]

@@decentgarage Absolutely the solution. It will be difficult to install now that the turbos are mounted. I had to grind a little of my stainless steel manifold to get them to all fit properly.

[@DAKOTANSHELBY]

I have a premium fiberglass Leer topper on my 2006 Stretched Dodge Ram Mega Cab 2500 5.9L Cummins 4x4 Laramie. The truck was stretched by Custom Solutionz in Salt Lake City. I do not like the tall toppers. Just the streamline toppers that form to the truck's roofline. I also have a Bed Rug in the 8ft bed.

[@decentgarage]

Oh boy, a megacab long bed is on my bucket list.

[@chrisharper2326]

Black shell then black roof and hood, top of bed height to top edge of fenders. I like the steel shells, Gem Top or Caravan Camper. Compounds are on my wish list but need a better transmission first.

[@RickBaker-vj7nd]

Did you have to take out the cooler that is below the manifold?

[@decentgarage]

It's a manual so it doesn't have the cooler.

[@RickBaker-vj7nd]

@@decentgarage got it! If it wasn't a manual would you have to remove it?

[@decentgarage]

@@RickBaker-vj7nd yes

[@dancerro4708]

That shell is great 👌🤌

[@mutantryeff]

Consider replacing those metal pipes going to the heater (alongside valve covers) to stainless pipes.

[@decentgarage]

Already have some on the way! 👍

[@desme34]

Love the topper as is

[@decentgarage]

Totally agree. That's what Matt said and it's growing on me too

[@jordanbarakat7288]

Your leaf springs look to long there not hitting the frame are they?

[@decentgarage]

They are barely short enough. They don't hit but it's close

[@freddydelgadoguzman7708]

Hola amigo cómo estás saludos acá de Austin Texas Freddy Delgado nice video saludos y bendiciones

[@georgeenriquez612]

I vote on color matching the topper

[@edwardharris7080]

Paint match the topper and tint the windows really dark.

[@decentgarage]

Like that idea!

[@cupwalker24.7]

Sometimes.... I Sit back and Realize I Would have a lot more money in life and happiness if I didn't love diesel Engines and trucks so much All my life ..But then I Realized How I Eat and Drink and Survive Everyday when I got older so I just Went with the Flow 😎

[@Chad_H]

I dog the topper. I don't know if I'd paint match it silver, or just repaint it black.

[@decentgarage]

I agree! I think the black with aluminum trim fits well

[@JustinSchooler-f2j]

That's a awesome truck, with compounds it's super awesome lol

[@laisuresboringadventures7052]

Eventually ur gonna wanna tie the carport concrete into the driveway concrete

[@laisuresboringadventures7052]

Make sure ur manifold isn’t warped

[@decentgarage]

It's not 👍

[@laisuresboringadventures7052]

@@decentgarage I was referring to the other one before I saw u had a new one but it’s always good to check the new one before installing it too

[@peterschmidt2849]

🇺🇸🤙🏻😎

[@fc3sboy1]

You 12v and early 24v non comon rail guys make me laugh when compound charging an only rub run one oul return. There are 2 drain ports on those blocks use them. Infact cummins makes 2 lengths of return pipes to go along with it to boot.b

[@BenWhite-f3i]

Storm blocks have 2 drains, finding a 12v storm block is rare so the vast majority of 12v's do not have the 2nd drain port cast into the block.

[@localenterprisebroadcastin5971]

Damn bro your sub count has taken off 🫡…love the build, glad you’re going with compounds
