i was talking about you, thought you had upp do the work and they blew your engine then you went with liverniors 6.6 whipple. Just going based on your old thread.
I actually read through that thread earlier. Made me not want to run twin turbos thags for sure.

Exactly, don’t get me wrong I would love to get a tt setup working properly on the 6.2 but it’s just not built for boost any boost creep or bad tuning say goodbye to your motor. There’s a reason why you don’t see ppl running them

ah... yes. That’s true. I was trying to make this work on a superduty platform though. The tuning is totally different.

Livernois is the only shop with the software that can tune a superduty (with boost). The raptor is a more ‘mainstream’ platform so there are a multitude of tuners that can access the requisite parameters.

Although it makes boost differently, at it’s core a turbo setup affects the engine no differently from a supercharger setup (besides the fact that a supercharger produces a parasitic loss). Air is getting forced into the engine in exactly the same way. I’ve had 1000 horsepower big turbo cars that produced perfect boost numbers and fuel/air mixtures 100% of the time. You’re not blowing up your motor “because it’s a turbo” you’re blowing up your motor because who ever installed it didn’t give you a proper boost control and waste gate system and didn’t tune it properly.

and didn’t tune it properly.

correct. And the software to tune a superduty (F350) is (was) not as advanced with respect to the ability to access all parameters and code as the F150 (raptor) platform.

I’m not surprised, as the superduty ECU provides boost control parameters stock as well as a greater degree of fuel and timing control because the diesels are obviously turbocharged from factory. As an aside, really cool truck though

He had a gas 6.2 superduty.

Different ECU than a 6.7 Scorpion diesel and different than a 6.2 gas raptor. I've had both.
