[QUOTE="KCTurbos, post: 1060281, member: 13852"] any way someone can get a 5-10mph roll or 1200-1700rpms... Insead of starting out above 2000rpms and 35mph I like my trucks to be quick from stoplight to stoplight. Not just on the highway and the track. I want to be able to pull out in front of traffic. Also maybe a 1200-1600rpms roll into the throttle with tq converter locked in OD. I know... picky picky... I drive a 6.0 and I have tried many different combos of vgt turbos with many different injectors. The bigger (68, 71, 72 etc) pull super hard above 1700rpms. But still struggle a little down around 1200-1600rpms... On the other hand a stage 1 63.5mm vgt turbo spools crazy fast down low (like 20psi at 1800rpms) but then dies off by 2500-3000rpms. I just wish I could have the best of both worlds. Quick bottom end spool up of a 63mm and Strong pulling top end of a 68-71mm... I started looking into compound setups and 6.4 setups and just thought it was weird how many people give up the compounds setup to go back to a single. I guess that is why i started the thread. I have looked at a ton of non-vgt spool up thread... but most of them are just showing off the good side. I am worried about the bad side. [/QUOTE]
