The Best Twin Turbo Upgrade for Cummins Diesel
Upgrade your 1st Gen, 2nd Gen, 3rd Gen, or 4th Gen Cummins diesel with a DPS compound turbo kit. Whether you’re towing, racing, or daily driving, these twin turbo systems deliver cooler EGTs, better drivability, and more horsepower—from stock up to 1100 HP. Choose from multiple stages based on your goals.
Available Turbo Stages:
- Stage 2.5 – 625 HP | S362/68/.70 over S475
- Stage 3 – 600 HP | S362/68/.70 over S480
- Stage 3.5 – 625 HP | Ball Bearing S362/68/.70 over S475
- Stage 4–6.5 – Up to 750 HP | S363–S366 with S475/S480 options
- Stage 8–8.5 – 1100 HP | S366/73/.80 over S480
How to Choose Your Kit:
Multiply your current horsepower by 1.25 to estimate post-install HP. Choose the appropriate stage, Cummins year, Turbonator® VGT option, and any large turbo upgrades using the dropdowns on this page.

- Optional VGT for exhaust brake capability
Why Compound Turbos Work So Well:
- Dual-stage compressors multiply boost efficiently and lower intake air temps
- Boost-to-drive pressure ratio approaches 1:1 for improved cylinder pressure
- Increased oxygen leads to complete combustion and more power per stroke
- Cooler air molecules carry away heat (like bypass air in a jet engine)
Kit Includes:
- S300 and S400 turbos (except piping/Stage 1)
- 3-piece exhaust manifold
- All required charge pipes, oil lines, and air intake components
- Downpipe or exhaust adapter (based on year)
