Honestly I’m surprised they used a 3.0L in-line six diesel when they already had the 2.8L Duramax that’s being used in the Colorado and the G series van... seems like they coulda bumped boost pressure a little and that woulda worked fine. We’ve already seen what that engine is rated in the Colorado...
