Tariffs, Turbochargers, and Testing Criteria

Episode 351: In this episode of The Heavy Duty Parts Report, Jamie Irvine welcomes back Dan McClave, President of Switchblade Turbochargers. Dan is a returning guest on the show. If you want to learn all about the origin story of Switchblade Turbochargers and how they create fuel savings for commercial trucks, listen to episode 286 and episode 336. In episode 351, Dan discusses how their patented turbocharger design helps fleets reduce fuel costs. A recent three-month test with Flint Creek Transport showed a 12% improvement in fuel efficiency, with drivers reporting better performance and reduced turbo lag. The test was carefully controlled, using the same truck, driver, and routes to isolate the impact of the turbo upgrade. Dan also shares how recent tariffs have positively impacted their U.S.-based manufacturing business, encouraging fleets to source locally and avoid overseas supply chain risks. He outlines Switchblade’s three pillars of success—people, process, and product—and explains how empowering employees and streamlining operations have enabled the company to scale production and serve larger fleets.
