I have always felt the turbo charger was the cause of the slow buildup of current in GEs. A GE has a true turbo charger, which means it is driven by exhaust gases and at low engine speed there is not much gas pressure. An EMD has a gear driven turbo at low gas pressure that disengages and works as a true turbo at higher exhaust gas pressures.
