Is the C13 cat engine slow to wind up?
A 13 spd. would be my choice behind any engine. The c13 is slow to wind up but I found that if you just crack the throtle after a gear change and wait a second or two for turbo spool-up then squeeze on the pedal it really comes to life. If all you do is shift and mash then it wont pull or get any mileage.
Which is better a C12 or C13 cat?
The turbos are horribly slow to kick in, and if your truck isn’t warmed up beyond about 160 degrees good luck getting a heavy load moving. The C12 was a much better motor. New Cat C13’s, even pre 2007, are only designed for fuel mileage. So screw it if it takes your truck 5 minutes just to get up to 65 MPH.

What should the PSI be on a C7 ACERT cat?
The C7 needs at least 25 psi to start. If it is low, you most likely have a weak transfer pump. If the pressure is Good, I would next suspect a faulty engine speed timing sensor. Your engine has 2. They are located on the driver’s side of the engine behind the front cover under the HEUI pump. The bottom sensor is the primary crank sensor.
