Turbo question?

This is probably stupid, but has anyone heard of putting like a 18 wheeler, or dump truck turbo on one of these 5.9's

Just though i would ask.

WAAAY To BIG !!! that would be like putting a HT3B on as a single.. Laggy probably wouldnt even be able to get enough RPMs to spool it. I tried a WH2D with a 17 wastgated exhaust housing it's smaller than a HT3B and it didnt start spooling till about 2800 rpms it pulled hard to 3500 but no fuel left..
