Okay gents, gathering a general consensus here. So some of you may have heard me talking about my old truck, the 88 IDI I've been tinkering with. Complete engine overhaul, transmission overhaul, and turbo rebuild.
Well I've come to a point due to my factory IP taking a **** after the rebuild. So what would a natural diesel head do? Slap a bigger IP on of course. So I hit up the guys at R&D IDI and got a hold of one of their RD150 injection pumps.... you know, the one just shy of the racing version..... after collaboration with their brains justin, we've came to conclude that my 5 year old banks sidewinder turbo kit is simply not going to move enough air to keep this beast happy. So, again, natural diesel head says ok, bigger turbo time.
Manage to get my hands on a borg warner B3 turbo, non wastegated, with a 62 mm inducer and 96mm exducer on intake side out of a freightliner with a DD15. After thinking, that turbo meant for a 12 plus liter engine was gonna have HELLA time trying to spool off my little old 7.4. So .... since I still have the te06h from my banks kit, and its you know, completely rebuilt..... whats stopping me from running a compound setup? B3 feeding the little Mitsu? R&D seems to think i have the engine built to handle over 50psi.... but what can this little mitsu handle?
