diesel turbo? Is there a diesel turbo that youcan use on a 6.0l. One that will make 15psi and last a long time. I have diesel turbo's all around me. Just wondering. Thanks for any input good or bad,JC
The thing with most diesel turbos is they're compressor maps are pretty short, and meant to be run up around 40psi and 3500rpm. You running them at 15psi is going to make it damn inefficient.
67, I have a Cummins Holset Hx-50 turbo!!! Damn, My serect is blown now, lol!!!! And I have NO Problems using it with 10-15 psi!! Lowtech ask someone that is using a diesel turbo like us D.I.Y people like me.. And if you want to learn more about Lsx's using diesel turbos go to www.junkyardturbos.com
They're maps are only like 50lb/min. You can make it blow it's brains out and be inefficient as hell, I'm not saying it won't work, it just won't be the most efficient.
