Towing with a HTT 1362?
Anyone doing any 10K + towing with this HTT turbo? Just wondering how the spool up is and egt control.
65mm drive wheel and 62mm extended tip compressor wheel with the 13cm Stainless Steel Alloy turbine housing.

Sounds like I might be better off with some twins. Elevation range I drive in is 4500 to 9000ft. It would be nice on the mountain passes to be at speed limit or above with manageable EGT's.

in 5th gear at 65
I believe we altitude challenged folks need higher drive pressure to do the work, my truck drives awesome, and I can use all my power, but not towing on a warm day.... its to bad.....
