BBQ Guru on my future RF build?

[doodad126]

I am planning to build a horizontal, rectangular RF smoker at the start of 2014. 

Estimated Measurements:

Cooking chamber: Length=48 in, Width=24 in, Height=30 in

Firebox: Length=24 in, Width=24 in, Height=20 in

I am interested in eventually getting a BBQ Guru because a lot of people seem to use and like them. I have looked at BBQ Guru's website and my understanding is that I would need 2 Pitbull 25 cfm fans, 2 bulkhead adapters and a fan splitter with the DigiQ DX2.

Am I looking at the website right? Does anybody else have a similar setup that uses the BBQ Guru, and does it seem like this would be what I might want to use? I will likely build my smoker first and see how she performs and then see if I might want the BBQ Guru later.

Thanks for any input.

So should that mean that one should be enough, or is it too much and need a smaller one? My understanding is that I want a good flow of heat and smoke through the smoker but I don't want it to force it through and cause some turbulence. I just wonder how to achieve that the best.

DooDaddyo......I was looking at a thread in General Discussion Sticky, titled Pit Builder List. Go to the Langbbqsmokers dot com site..Go to 48" models page, scroll to the bottom and watch the video, "How to start a Fire".  Its a RF cooker also. The info on that Vid, every BBQer should watch.....
