My main issue is they seem very rare. There is the one done by Jannetty (I try to read every post he produces), I think a member that goes by "hitmix300" did one, and there was another member "6thgenmadness" that was considering one. At the end of the day, I'm concerned about the low number of users. I feel like if I get a Maggy 2650 and upgrade my fuel system (toohighpsi) to run E85, I can get plenty of support on the forum if I have issues, however, I don't have that level of confidence that I can get advice if there are issues, long term, with Hellion. I do know their support is said to be good, but coming from a support background, I like to have multiple references. Two builds that interest me are Laynlo and Mike's son at "toohighpsi". Stock internals with added fuel and a 2650, running reasonable boost, making great power. Everything is a trade off. Any comments?

We had such impressive results that I am surprised more people have not gone Hellion twins.
I have sold and remotely supported several others that have also had great results.
In My opinion it is the cost and skill set required to do this correctly that deters many, seems most want to take the easy route which is somewhat understandable.
These systems are Top notch and combined with professional installation give stellar results boost for boost.
There is no debating turbos make more power Per LB of boost than any other option.
The system has the potential to make outrageous power but not without the fuel system upgrades which add another 2.5-3K to the project.
If there are any questions I can answer don't hesitate to reach out.
