    Piston protrusion issue

    I took some more measurements and the fly cuts are .010 below the block and the rest of the piston is .040 above. If the valve reliefs are below the block, will this still be a problem?

    Piston protrusion issue

    compounding a kc stage 3??

    charlie fish of kc turbos cracked the tune a few years back for the 6.0 to make vgt compounds work when more than 40 psi was hit. before this there was an issue with ebp at around 40 psi. 6.0 Tech will be able to tell you more but im pretty sure a couple of tuners are able to do it.

    compounding a kc stage 3??

    i wouldn't have thought that a stage 3 and a s480 would make 1000hp, would it not be more like 850? could be wrong

    compounding a kc stage 3??

    has anyone compounded a kc stage 3 turbo before? will this work or does the turbo not respond well to the extra flow? i have never seen it done yet so there's probably a reason.
