    crossover fitment?

    i did the search thing and couldn't find wether or not a crossover pipe from a 94 -2000 will fit my 93? can't seem to find one specific for a 93. looking at the one from Our Deals Rock on ebay. bought their downpipe and the fitment was excellent. thanks, Tom

    my custom intake

    here is my similar set up. i just used the factory 90 i know it isn't the smoothest but it was cheap. the filter could be changed to a longer one if one chose to, which i may do later. but the truck runs better and you can hear the turbo sing.

    reliable 6.5td

    what if your truck spends more time in the driveway than the highway. i am currently using rotella synthetic, but i would be lucky to put three 3500 or so miles on my truck, how long should i wait to change and will the synthetic matter?

    turbo intake boot oil leak ?

    yeah i am not sure that i will stick with the synthetic very long. it sure starts easier and seems to stay cleaner. i might try a new turbo intake boot with new clamps. idk

    turbo intake boot oil leak ?

    it is not a standard hose clamp but it isn't a very heavy duty clamp either. has anyone else experienced this from either uping their boost or switching to the synthetic oil?

    turbo intake boot oil leak ?

    the clamps may be loose i tightened them with a nut driver, but they are just regular old hose clamps. there has always been a little oil coming from there, but i noticed today that they was al little more thn normal. i am just wandering if the extra boost and the thinner oil could have...

    turbo intake boot oil leak ?

    recently i changed to the rotella synthetic and increased my boost to 10psi. now i notice that i have been getting more oil coming out the turbo to intake boot. i assume the oil is from the recent changes, am i thinking right or do i need to do some inspecting elsware. also don't know the age...

    time to turn it up or leave it be

    yeah the downpipe is straight towards the back of the truck and it is in fact 3 inch which worked great for me cause my exhaust is 3 inch as well. i just butted the two together and used an exhaust strap style clamp and voila. oh and the downpipe has plenty of clearance as well. i would deff...

    time to turn it up or leave it be

    air filter is done, downpipe installed, and home brewed turbomaster completed. took it out for a test drive and deffinent improvement. got about 11 pounds of boost and you can hear the turbo sing, music to my ears. the air filter i bought a 6 inch long piece of 4 inch aluminum pipe and a 4...

    Replacement Air Filter Options

    its not a k47 but it did only cost me $42.00 bucks, i haven't driven with it yet but i imagine it will do just fine. the filter came with a shroud that goes almost half way around the filter to help block some of the underhood heat.

    time to turn it up or leave it be

    yeah i don't pull a trailer to often, if we go on long atv trips we pull the trailer with the ole lady's escalade anyways (more room). i think i will get the downpipe and the air filter in then drive it to see the difference and then bring it back in and do the wastegate and turn the pump up...

    time to turn it up or leave it be

    ok well the consensus is to leave the ip alone until i get an egt gauge, well what about the homemade turbomaster. go ahead and build it and bump up the boost to 10psi, or should i wait until i can turn up the ip. i would think they would need to be adjusted together. don't you need more fuel...

    time to turn it up or leave it be

    well after this coming weekend i will have a new 3 inch down pipe to match my 3 inch straight pipe exhaust. and a new custom air intake setup. as of right now i do not have an EGT gauge but it will be at the top of the list soon enough. my question is will my 6.5 be ready for a lil more fuel...

    turning up the boost???

    a new downpipe is on my list of things to do but i need to change my oil cooler and lines. the crossover pipe was just replace with a fatory piece but i may look into changing it this summer.

    turning up the boost???

    so is my 3 inch straight pipe still pretty restrictive? i know i need the down pipe and crossover.

    turning up the boost???

    exactly, that is why i was wandering if the pump could be turned up, like you could on an old diesel tractor.
