ISX or ACERT, can't win?

I'm not at all scared of the twin turbos. Each one is only doing a fraction of the work as the would be as a single. The whole advantage of twins is higher air volume with lower heat without the lag of a single. I would like to see someone do a custom set of twin turbos on an Acert for performance, but if you've seen the factory set live at 70psi it doesn't look like their needed.

 

good thread . will visit again to see the outcome.....

 

Most honest mech will tell you cats are not long life,,, my mech example will tell you he has more cat engine overhauls at 500,000 than any other.

Me when i drove, cat was my pref also but now that i have to pay as an o/o no way.

I will tell you in general cats lug better and shift WAY better.

And kenworth will inframe a cummins for 13,096 and a cat almost 19,000

 

WOW 1.4 mil in 4 or 5 years I could make some money doing them Ks

 

I would say you better go cat then!!!!! Good luck to ya.

 

Don't touch the Cat, any honest owner/operator will tell you you can"t afford the crappy fuel mileage or the repairs. I should know I own one.

 

Im an honest O/O and I say your 100% wrong. alot of guys dont know how to run them(especially Acerts)and few dealership mechanics know how to make them run right. many here including myself have Acerts that ran like crap but with the right changes they run from good to great depending on what mods are done. I see your new here,do yourself a favor and read the Cat threads,get educated,ask questions and then
FIX YOUR TRUCK!!
