Considering that is where the factory gate is set, no. We have guys pushing them to 35+ reliably. Honesty goes a long long way with turbochargers. Many guys don't ever look at their gauge and tell me they only see 30 psi. Later they call after we ask them to actually watch and it is 40+ psi.

Wouldnt putting a speed sensor and mapping it out be the only real way to check if its safe?

I think the fact we sell 20+ remans a month of this model of turbo gives us enough experience to know that 30psi is safe. Boost leaks are what kill them. Overspeed them with boost leaks and the wheel will split in half. They will do that with 20psi of boost on a 435 engine.

Makes a lot of sense.

Lmao. Get one and let me know how your fuel test goes. We’ve had them since 1996.

What's the difference in a 7923 and 7924 of a 16 liter? Outside they look the same? The 7924 suitable for a smaller engine with some more fuel?

The sliding tarp? They're pretty rare in western Canada for a reason.

What's the reason? There are lots of things uncommon in western canada partly due to the lack of population and mostly due to the pig headed attitude of doing nothing similar to Eastern canada ( ) and anywhere else prosperous...

but we got dat OIL MONEY doe!!

The 7924 is a 78mm inducer and has a larger turbine wheel. The size I cannot recall off of the top of my head. Essentially, everything is larger in a nutshell to keep it simple.

Actually there's a few reasons:

- the wind. I know two guys at our company that had them. First one took it off after about a year. Second one has spent a lot of money keeping it together. You're generally coming through wy/mt or sd/nd on the way home. That's not easy on those systems.

- the loads. Just about impossible to fit upright headers under one. Heaven forbid if it moves a bit. Oversize is out of the question. We also pull more steps than flats, I know you can get them for steps but that's more money and complication

- the weight. We need a closed tandem up here and generally our specs are a bit heavier than our American counterparts. So you go down south and they expect you to be able to take 47k or 48k. Add a sliding tarp. Now you want to add a front slider to get a spread that's another what 700 lbs? I know guys that can barely take 46k.

But I'm still intrigued by the idea of one that's maybe half height. The wheelsets are 40" high max. Just take it off out of season. I'm sure the customer would appreciate not receiving their wheelsets covered in salt too.

I see. This one ran 30-33 and it wasn't real happy about it, but I don't remember the exact or number. It was a stock 550 gated 2ws turbo.
