[QUOTE="euroford, post: 1456986, member: 17667"] Most of the threads i've found discussing compounds on the 7.3 have devolved into bunch of posts just saying "your stupid, put a T4 on it and be done", but I honestly see some validity to the concept. Especially if your a DIY guy who's going to do all of your own fabrication. You might just be able to get a lot of air in that motor for a fairly minimal investment, and i know i'd have fun just doing the tinkering and fab work. Very interested in following your build progress, it would be great if you can post some photos and etc. as you go through the process. I can envision how most of this could be laid out pretty reasonably, mostly i'm curious about where your source oil pressure and drains for the atmospheric turbo. Making something like this, especially with your low-ish boost goals, you'll want to have good control over the wastegates. I'd prowl around ebay for a used HKS or Greddy electronic boost controller, they are pretty cheap and even the older ones work very very well. I've been using and HKS EVC3 for about a year now and its a great gadget that I scored for under $200. I'm surprised more diesel guys don't use these. [/QUOTE]
