    This #### thing is weak as it should be since its only 10 liters. My question is would a turbo for an n14 help it any? Or would it work better with tweaked screws on pump and straight pipe. Its in a dump truck with 8ll behind it. Gvwr is 60k supposedly. The truck has 130k original miles and you can eat off the engine. No oil leaks etc. Only downside is no Jake brake

    I thought the 2 stroke Detroits were weak until I drove an L10 cummins.

    The L10 was a dog. And then Cummins put them in generator packages.
