    6.9 fuel economy after turbo add and fuel screw increase

    Yes, under towing or high altitude situations, that's when you'll see a bit of an improvement in MPG with a turbo compared to N/A, but day to day putting around you won't notice much.

    Hybrid factory turbo collector to Banks turbo, ideas please.

    They probably opened it up and had to call all their friends over to admire the quality work.

    Haha! Great! I keep my expectations low with the shipping processes, that way i'm less likely to be disappointed by it!

    Injection pump time

    Here in B.C, Prince George Fuel Injection has built some good pumps for me.

    Hybrid factory turbo collector to Banks turbo, ideas please.

    Yup I do have the Banks up pipes still, so I can use whatever from them. I'd like to use the flange joint for the turbo inlet coupling as i've never had any leak problems there, it's a conventional flange and that can be my disconnect point if necessary. Then i'd like to weld to the slip...

    Hybrid factory turbo collector to Banks turbo, ideas please.

    I'm messing with a project with a Banks 1st gen turbo and I am trying to eliminate the ridiculously long and inefficient Banks up pipes (which needed to get redone anyways). I am wanting to use an exhaust Y collector from a factory turbo kit, and fabricate a nice short up-pipe to the Banks...

    ISO 1 gen Banks manual trans pedestal.

    Needle in a haystack, but thought id try anyways. Looking for a 1st gen non gated Banks turbo pedestal for a manual trans. Im in Canada, and will happily pay well to get it here.

    Installing engine and trans together.

    I've pulled and installed many idi engines. Curious about pulling/installing them with the ZF5 attached? I have lots of lifting power/reach and means of support. Im doing an install of both engine and trans in the bush soon without means of a decent jack or decent ground to work on. The...

    High pressure fuel pumps

    I would go Bosch 7.3 powerstroke lift pump (which tend to have a long life) and a regulator.

    Valve Stem Seals

    Installing comp 910's for the first time on a turboed 6.9. And since the umbrella seals on the exhaust don't fit right with the 910s, I will install them without seals on the exhaust side as I don't want to install the positive seals on the exhaust, in fear of accelerated guide wear.

    Valve Stem Seals

    And many of us, including myself; see less guide wear in 6.9's. Only thing that makes sense is the looser/non existent valve seals.
