the 6.7-liter sst provides up to around 30 psi boost compared to approximately 40 psi from the 6.4-liter dual-sequential unit and operates at up to 130,000 rpms.

That's about right for a turbocharger spooling up and making boost.

Turbocharger RPM, not engine RPM.

I wonder if they designed in a special glow plug problem for these engines.
It just seems Ford likes to have plug problems, just may want to carry them over to the diesels

Why would you build it here when there are 1/3rd the regulations in mexico and the workforce is cheap. How about we deal with the government regulations that make it not cost affective to build things here before we jump on a company for building elsewhere.
