Truckers, lets see your rigs!

LoL, Detroit does it better yet the GT55 I have is the exact same spec as what Detroit uses on some of their 14L industrial engines rated at only 665hp.

Here is a test cell sheet from a generator engine rated at 855hp, it is a 15.2L C15 with a GT5518.

Engine uses about 106lbs/min at a boost reading of around 39.3psi. Exhaust flow out is around 297lbs/m.

You ever think that they go large on the turbo to get a useable turbine size to let the engines breathe properly?

Oh Cat will build some junk, the SDP/LEE isn't one of them. It's Leifi's "everything made in Europe is better" BS that I'm jumping on. None of the engines from there that have made their way across the pond are spectacular.
