Message: [QUOTE="Charles, post: 1015376, member: 103"] The blower can only come up as fast as the crankshaft. A turbo setup can make full boost very soon. My Regular cab would hit regulated boost of 70psi as low as 1700rpm. And still be perfectly efficient at 3000+rpm. My truck [i]gains[/i] boost for a second on a shift... On the other hand a blower must lose boost on a shift, because as you said... it's directly tied to the crank, which slows down! No wastegate to shut and bring turbine speed up, nothing.... just a slower spinning blower, making less boost off the shift, over and over. Point being, a turbo is more efficient and will make boost faster than you want it anyway. Which is why I don't see Cat, Cummins, Deere, International, Yanmar, Mack or any other company of that level running blowers and turbos. You can have snappy and responsive with no forced induction at all. Just run a nice set of nozzles and bring ICP in quick. If you're going to do something that makes little sense, I would suggest doing it before talking about it if you don't like to hear the responses. Sounds like you've got it about done. Lets focus on that. [/QUOTE]
