Well I have had four wheel disk brakes on my truck since 2010, the Eldorado calipers with parking brake. I didn't change the proportiong valve and have been reasonably happy with how it stops. BUT yeah couldn't leave it well enough alone. So the quest for an easy upgrade to improve the over all...
SO I have been an owner since the beginning way back in 2007, My truck has about 40,000 on the turbo and it has saved me a lot of fuel dollars. I picked up 3 miles to the gallon on the highway originally and the towing capability was great. I towed 28,000 truck and trailer for a little over 1000...
The person and persons doing the unbiased testing of the ATT or A-team Turbo at another site have a personal agenda and the information they have posted is untrue, they have fabricated lies, and used manipulation to make their case. Please realize the ATT is the ONLY true turbo replacement kit...
I have a line on a few maybe ten diesel timing light set ups. These use an optical input to drive a inductive pulse so that you can use a regular inductive timing light. Trying to figure out if 75 dollars per unit is worth it? Anyone in? I like the optical light because you can figure out where...
Given what we know now about our trucks (THIS IS NOT A I LIKE THIS TURBO THREAD) strictly yes or no with an explanation of why you would or would not recommend a GM turbo. I personally would never go back to or have a gm turbo again on my truck. To restrictive and poor fuel economy given what I...
Had a member send back his turbo for bearing failure. Checked his truck 's oil pressure ok volume ok. get the turbo back and take it apart all bearings wiped out thrust bearing wiped out and no obstructions in the oil passages. Smelled funny and asked him if he ran thinner through the turbo to...
Spoke with a gentleman yesterday that was using an A-team Turbo on a 35 foot motor home hauling a 20 foot enclosed box trailer for his racing vehicle. Constant 12 psi boost at highway speed, and told me that he had went from 7 miles to the gallon of fuel to 9.5 just by the addition of the turbo...
Some owners who recently purchased an A-Team Turbo turbo will be contacted regarding a manufacturing error in the turbine housing of their turbo charger. The housing was not manufactured to the specifications required and affects the proper performance of the turbo charger. . The replacement...
Well finally getting around to having a forum. I would like to get input from owners so that potential buyers can get information and questions answered. Making a decision to purchase a turbo can be daunting. I would also like to discuss tunes from different vendors what you have seen and how...
With the advent of the new tunes / new ways to improve our combustion process and other modifications, How much fuel can we actually use. Is there a point at which the effort is futile, based on the combustion restrictions of the IDI process? The 6.5 crew always worries about smoke after our...
Since there is so much talk about turbos and which is best, Should there be a turbo comparison day? Take A known truck and a stock factory tune then a tune modified for the specific truck and turbo so that we can quantify the attributes of all the proposed models. We would need a truck that has...
OK I have secured a new intake hose set up for the A-TEAM Turbo. I am still in negotiations to get a hose made. In the interim I have used set up that Matuva has been using and I like it. Thanks Al
All orders from this date on will be 25 dollars more for the upgraded intake setup. I am not...
Ok for those of you that own an ATT. I have been paying attention to the recent issue with the supplied intake hose. I have a question then, do you think the continued oil bath internally on the hose deteriorates the hose and If I sourced a different hose or two hump hoses and a piece of steel...
Ok, to clear up the statement, I have my truck apart for some RD work and decided to check my injectors while I have it apart. I have an OTC nozzle checker. The injectors leaked down and four of them had a small peeing just before popping. Now if I hit the injectors fast they all had a decent...
I had someone send me a PM that made me think. They said that info from (ATT) A-Team Turbo owners was hard to find and that finding info on where to purchase the turbo was hard to find. And also most people don't want to read a long technical thread on the turbo.
People want the short and...
