@@KCTURBOS sorry that’s what I meant. Normally not much time is spent WOT but 20-70% load is where the brunt of the time is spent. Totally agree VGT all the way unless doing some kind of race or pulling setup.
So VGTs are found on basically all modern diesels from the factory. However, many gas engine equipped vehicles also run VGT turbos. The main thing is, how big does the turbo need to be? lots of gas turbos are really small because they only need a few lbs of boost and really small turbos light super fast. So if a large turbo from the factory is needed, then a VGT style makes a lot of sense to get that thing to light ASAP.
So add a non vgt in front of the vgt. Got it
u guys should make a single swap kit for the 6.4 psd that uses a vgt instead of a non vgt.
They do. I’d rather my turbo move the air when I need it then work in a narrow window that you only spend 10% of your time in.
But what you just described is a non-vgt turbo? The man benefit is increased top end on a WOT pull, which is where you only spend 10% of your time.

Two turbos are twice the fun!
What is vgt mean
Variable geometry turbocharger, basically the turbo can adjust on the fly the rate of air intake with a valve inside the turbo housing
Right on those are typically on diesels right? Or are they just talking generally?
