    I did a few trial drives with the T-series and personally I find it alot more smoother ride if the turbocharger is not present. You can get feel of the engine's power and performace on it's own. I personally would suggest to remove the turbocharger for all variants including scenarios and maybe leave it on one or two instances only. It bring pure joy shifting gears on the thing with no turbocharger.

    currently working on a mod that adds an NA intake for realy cheap models. would be useless to be NA on higher models due to weight etc imo

    I've been test driving the cabover and it can handle itself with no turbo. I did the gas station delivery and i removed the turbo afterward and drove it around site. It's got it under control. The only ones who would need a turbo is the big variant with sleepers or dump bed and ramp plows. I'd be looking forward to a smooth ride for everything else. That's a rough idea or even experiment with the idea of having the weakest turbo mount as well for the majority of units

    i've done pretty much all the scenarios with the T-series which have a load on it's back only, so the gas runner or the car delivery, that sort of stuff. I can safely guarantee they would do far better with no turbochargers. The gas delivery especially having no turbocharger because you can't power up properly, the truck's engine gets overwhelmed. the car delivery can still get messy but theres virtually pointless having a turbocharger in it. I haven't done shipment runner yet. but that's the idea to make the experience better
