Single or Twin turbo setup for 360?
OK, cool. And they are…..?????
1. A larger than optimal (what you would size for a power/response build) is what you want for towing. To stay OUT of boost in light load. The extra load (heavy truck, trailer) will make the boost when you want it.
2. I suggested more cubic inches as an easier path (cheaper) to his goals. Was trying to save him some money. Not just the “internet spending his money”
3. I had a 460 ford in an F350 dually with a vortec centrifugal supercharger. It was an excellent package BECAUSE of the rising (not linear) boost curve.
4. When I build an engine for ANY plan of boost, I skip right past the page where the cast and hypereutectic pistons are in the book and go straight to forged. Especially in a towing/heavy load situation. And I set them up with loose as a goose skirt clearance and huge ring gaps. Hypereutectic pistons are strong but very brittle and novice tuners will miss the tune up often and kill them. Forged will handle the long periods of heat in the crown and be more tolerant of inexperienced tuning mistakes.
