Seems like there was a thread or atleast a mention at one time. Just brain storming and see what you guys thought.
In the quest for max MPGs would going N/A on a engine built/set up for turbo gain any MPGs. At the same time I don't want a gutless turd that can't get out of its own way so keeping the turbo could be good also.
BUT what about having both? The thought would be to use a 6.2 style intake or even the 6.5, remove the upper and fab up a dual inlet. One inlet go's to turbo the other inlet would just have a cone filter on it. It could be plumbed to recieve cooler air from outside the engine bay. The N/A inlet would need a simple one way valve to prevent pressurized air from escaping.
Under low load conditions I think it would tend to N/A. An ajustable program would also be needed and might be set according to APP input?.
This is just the very rough idea and open for any comments.
