[QUOTE="CATDiezel, post: 1067358, member: 4387"] While that's true at 100% throttle. The two identical trucks running side by side are using (theoratically) the exact same horsepower moving the same load. Same bore. Same stroke. Same truck with running gear. One engine is not producing more horsepower to maintain 70mph So in theory the fuel mileage complaint is legit. (Although I don't care. I have a toyota camry at 35mpg for that) So in return. One engine is using more fuel to move the same mass the same distance with the same powertrain with ratios. Due to the lack of efficiency. The only real thing that changed is the turbo. The fuel delivery system is virtually the same as far as point of delivery. Might be a little bigger but that's not the point. Air fuel ratio + timing = xxx amount of NOx. (NO +NO2.... ALITTLE more complicated than that but no need to go into huge detail) So to make an engine produce less NOX technically it has to burn dirtier. There are LOTS OF equations here to achieve emissions standards. Lack of turbo efficiency had to be made up somewhere else. Increasing horsepower actually is a by flaw design in order to meet the emissions. I could without a doubt guarantee you that a 2015 turbo on a stock 2011 truck would produce a Much higher NOX output. The best way to alleviate that is to increase fuel demand and compression by means of higher cylinder temperatures/pressures. Which in turn produces.... MORE HORSEPOWER!! WIN..LOSE. SO yes. Morgan your right. Just wanted to give a little more detailed explanation so everyone is crying to FOMOCO. ALL in name of a more durable turbo. The 20 11 - 2014 turbo is a fine work of art by theory and efficiency. Just not the most dependable unfortunately. [/QUOTE]
