Message: [QUOTE="psduser1, post: 102242, member: 735"] Heat energy, I.e. the expansion of the hot exhaust is what's driving the turbo. Wrapping pipe, housing etc. can limit parasitic loss, but you'll still spend the bulk of your energy trying to turn the big turbine with limited success. Somebody here (in this thread?) talked about the turbo lighting at 2200-2400 rpm. That's great for a pulling truck, not so much for a dd. Now you've reduced available energy to drive your hp turbine as an added bonus, exaggerating your spoolup problems. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
