Message: [QUOTE="Big Bore, post: 56851, member: 760"] No argument there. However a guy showed up here in CO with compound setup using an ungated stock turbo fed by I believe a gt42 and layed down some pretty decent numbers on the dyno. Theres a thread here somewhere about it. There are obviously different levels of compounds, but what that guy did was pretty impressive. About like putting a tune on a 6.4 and getting 500rwhp. And this redneck compound setup didn't have a lot of money into it. A few more bucks to refine it and he's GTG, will outperform a truck running a single GT42 across the board and be able to tow at altitude. I think compounds are one of the ingredients to helping bring our motors up to the same level as newer motors and not have the use penalties you get with a single. Then, just like the 6.4, to get to the next stage of performance you have to upgrade your compounds. However I submit a guy can gate the shyt out of his stocker and run a GT45 in front of it to get to that next level. I'm just not sure what kind of penalty he would have towing at altitude. [/QUOTE]
