Saw this on another site, Doc....

I figured it probably represents what you think of turbos...

 

[Truckin4life]

I would love to turbo the truck...
Its "free" power, unlike a sc which robs power to make power..

LOL yeah but my SC only robs a little and I gained 240 HP so I can't complain! LOL

I do have to say I do like the whole "no turbo lag" thing! LOL

Exactly, SC is INSTANT power, with a turbo, 99% of the time there is lag.. theres more things that can wrong with a turbo as well such as turbo seals etc.

Rods, pistons, block . . . . . .

 

[lil_dq]

Well there goes that block....

I think, only cause its dark and I can't see very well, but I think I blew a rod, or bent a rod, or cracked a head, but whatever it was WAS NOT GOOD!

I have oil all over the whole backside of the engine bay, firewall, trans, undercarriage, you name it. So I will go to pick her up tomorrow(had to leave her in a parking lot since I was taking the wife to work do to inclement weather) with the gooseneck trailer. Oh well guess I get to build the lower end after all!

oh and Ian I am begining to doubt if it is worth it! LOL

 

[john112deere]

That sucks.

Too late to turn back now...so the only option is to make sure that the end result is, in fact worth it.

 

[DNFXDLI]

Crappy news Doc...sorry to hear what happened.

 

[lil_dq]

Yeah I thought something was up last night, at full throttle it bogged down so I took it to my tuner today and I took a few degrees timing out at load range to see if that helped since I was noticing a spark knock also.

 

[O'Rattlecan]

This is like a bad movie that should have been over an hour ago. This sucks Doc.

So whatcha gonna build?? 5.4 stroker????

 

[NeXtras]

No lag if its sized Right..

Correct, but that means a smaller turbo which = less power.

This is why on the 6.4L Diesel theres 2 turbos, back to back, small to big, smaller one spools faster and keeps the larger one spooled with limited if not no lag.

 

[dragogt]

Sorry but I have to disagree..

There is Small= no power, Right= No lag, and Large= Lag.. jmo

I'll back my point up tomorrow.. Right now I have to go to bed 0330 comes early. lol
