Looking good, but i think you need some more crap under your hood, maybe even a bigger turbo... or two... and a blower too???

HAHA, Its a dude in Finland. That's a fully built LB7 Duramax motor in a 01 with a Eaton M112, Holset Pro52, HX82 turbos, all compounding. He has it setup for the 112 to light the turbos and almost no lag and then it can by pass the 112 via a 60mm Waste gate at 60psi of boost I think he has plans to run about 90 psi of boost

Pretty cool I think I found it while resaching my compounding setup.

Ya, only to put it in a 7000lb truck and dump soot all over the track. Impressive nonetheless, but not really practical.

Some people may say the same thing about putting a 408 with a turbo in a heavy ecsb truck such as yours


Why not put oil in it from the drivers side valve cover?

3900lbs isn't heavy IMO. I'm sure he could get the weight out of a diesel, but not that much...wouldn't want to twist the frame.
