Wouldn't it be ironic if they were using the turbo the ATT was derived from?

Yeah problem is they still wouldn’t sell to us.
Damn, why not? It'll be off highway use I swear.
If they have a company like Mahle produce them, perhaps we could go straight through the manufacturer?

I doubt it. AM General does exclusively contracts with most it’s suppliers.
If anyone can chase it down, wouldn’t hurt to see what they did. But think of how many things AM General did wrong that took updates to correct. How many turbos were done poorly by GM.
There are about half dozen good turbo options for the 6.5 without throwing stupid money at it depending what the use is. ATT, hx35/40 hybrid, and hx40wii are top of the list imo for almost any 6.5 - definitely a hummer.
Having a person that can build 2 custom headers go to a turbo, then exhaust down isn’t an overwhelming problem to solve. Doing it as a kit that all hummer owners could just bolt on is, which is why Leroy, @Burning oil, is fighting to make it marketable priced and have no failures from release.
How is the magic wand waving going btw Leroy? Hope you are having luck.
Otherwise Dullahan, you might just do what I am hoping to this year and just one-off it. What part of the country are you in? If you can’t uild yours, maybe you live near one of the skilled hands here.

If it comes down to a manifold/header/exhaust change, I probably wont' have the budget for it for quite a while yet. That's why I'm hoping (although not holding my breath) that they're using a new center mount turbo that's a near bolt-in swap for the gm6/7. And if that were the case, it should have an AMG part #, and I'd think we could order it through one of the usual AMG vendors. Kinda dreaming I know, but at the same time doesn't seem too outta line.

Here was a different video about the lighter weight version one.
This all popped into mind when Eric found the video on YouTube and I had to call Linden at GEP and ask about it.
Still no production, still no estimate of production so just not enough customers is what it looks like. So that means none of the goodies like the ip, turbo, trans availability for us either of course.
Just as sad when I asked if anything new on the p400 he said “Yeah, I gotta take that off the website.” A few people ask about it but it just isn’t happening.”. So one of y’all needs to just get a cnc and start cutting girdles...
I wish he could share details about the turbo and ip.
