The fact that the '15 turbo's didn't live up to all the hype Ford touted at the Texas fair for starters. The NEW turbo is nothing more than an '11-'14 turbo minus the twin compressor wheel plus Lag now. There will never be a quicker spooling turbo than the dual boost in the 11-14's. If ya don't believe me just ask all the Diesel hot rodders over on the Army who have torn apart the New '15 turbos and exposed the truth. I will keep my '13 with the Dual boost and kick but down low any day of the week! The '15 will get me on the top end but who want's speeding tickets! Lag, Lag, Lag? Not on my '13!

I'm not buying the truck for a hotrod - I have real hotrods if I want to go fast. This truck is being bought to work and work hard..

Just as a heads up, there are a few companies that are working on modifying the 2015 chargers. They are being made to accept billet LMM turbo wheels.
Along with that, there is now kits to retro fit a 2015 turbo on the 2011-2014s
