A buddy let me take his truck to NC for the dyno day, big Mega cab ...awesome truck. ive been on him for getting upgrades and the other day he handed me his credit card And told me to buy him 1 thing for his truck.

I Called up New Era Diesel and asked what they could do me for on a Good Towing Turbo...

And today it came in, i took some photos of it for you 3rd gen guys. He tows heavy a lot hes a professional welder and fabricator. said he was putting it on this weekend so ill let you know his report..

HTT 62/65/12 Turbo

 

oooooooooooooooo purty

 

Lucky man I bet he welds alot better now!

 

it is a sexy turbo, but he's gonna have a little more lag than the stocker.

 

a 12cm ext housing shouldn't have much lag hell ive had a 21cm on my truck with stock injectors at one time ....now thats lag

 

HTT has been having issues with turbo failure and not backing their poduct be careful nothing worse than a pissed off friend cause you bought the wrong turbo! No worries on lag he should like it hope he has the fuel to go with it!

 

2006 Cummins Puts down 461 HP with just a superchips, Intake, Exhaust, McCabe Flex Plate , Triple Disk Converter and TFOD SK'd VB


The Turbo should rock it

 

I have that exact same turbo, and it spools faster than stock, and I made 478/937 on the dyno with 40" tires and 3.73's, so i'm not going to complain, and when you deal with the right people selling the products they usually make it right in the end if there is a problem

 

Any install Tips?

 

take the exhaust manifold off, and do it that way if possible, i would've done it that way if i had to do it again, the back two bolt/bolts closest to the engine block are a pain to get at when trying to install it properly, other than that it was pretty straight forward, I guess i forgot that my exhaust had to be moved a bit which made it hit the transmission dipstick line so i made a new bracket to hold that away from the exhaust, but i can't guarantee you'll have to do the same thing, i have an aftermarket ats manifold on mine so i think that might have played a role in some of the "problems"
