Default Stuff Is Falling Off My truck Again, This Time it's The Turbo

Last time it was teh Tranny and before I put it back I bombed the hell out of it with a Goerends brother Convertor, Good Clutches and steels, and Some other go fast goodies!

Guess I should do the same with the Turbo!

I'll go ahead and make this the install thread. Here is whats going back in!

And S300 Based Industrial Injection Silver 62! Also in the back ground you can see the 4" 2nd gen HX40 style Downpipe i will use.

Removal of the old turbo is so easy I didn't even take pics. Simply unbolt the exhaust, intake, Oil feed on top and drain on bottom. Then the 4 nuts that hold it to the manifold. Took about 30 min.

Install of the new turbo should start tonight or tomorrow, I was slowed down yesterday because it was raining inside my house monday night.

Just got up with Luke from Diesel Dawgs Performance here on the site and got a 4" Expandit exhaust on the way! Hell of a sale he has going on right now and his service is top notch!!! I almost had him send me a 5" turbo back for my 06 Cummins also, for $289 shipped its a STEAL!!! i dont think Steph would understand though.

Got my Stock downpipe off... 20 years of rust made me bust out the pipe cutter! If Fed-Ex would ever show up I would have the new exhaust so I can mock up my 2nd gen down pipe and the turbo so I will know were to make adjustments. Quite a difference in size huh...

Yeah alot of the 4" exhausts o around it. It's tight but it will go. The expandit exhaust I got is a 3.5" Downpipe but seeing as how I'm using a HX40 style I dont need it.

Exhaust showed up!!!
