Message: [QUOTE="getstroked27, post: 1290126, member: 13969"] UGH LOL this is so open ended and never ending it is not even funny. factory style "drop in" compounds, or fabricated compounds? I Will play the devils advocate and go ahead and point out my good friend made 11xx on fuel with a single s588 on a built motor 5.9... but would he have made more with a properly sized HP turbo in a compound setup? probably not... considering my other good friends 5.9 with extremely similar mods did 1040 on fuel with a 464/588 setup. BUT, the compound truck drove much better on the street. There are benefits of both setups, in their given applications. at some point, a big single becomes too much for a street driven truck, and clearly, as shown by just about every high HP competition based truck, single turbos are not enough to make good power. you need the CFM of a massive atmospheric charger, paired with the STreet manners of the HP turbo. BUT, all of the 1500+ HP trucks out here in my neck of the woods have stupid big compounds. i mean, the smaller setups run about 76MM/106MM. and goes up to about 100/118. theres always going to be a distinct advantage/disadvantage for any turbo setup, you just have to figure out what your goals are to determine what suits you best, every truck, and driver, have a different preferred setup that works best for them. so yeah.
