    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Installed the Laptop mount and tried out the Toughbook. Got one of the Antenna Mast mounts installed (OMG what a pain. Took forever. Those "nuts" or whatever they're called are retarded. Long story). Installed one of the seat covers. Here's a pic of the laptop mounted up. I'll post more tomorrow.

    Tomorrow's going to be a busy day! It's like Christmas in April. Got the antenna mounts today, one of the whips, Laptop mount, Radio mount, Tactical Gear seat covers, and... My Toshiba Toughbook & GPS. Also will be installing the 24v fans that I got from Andy1234 here...

    Did a small paint test on the Rapco paint I got in today to see how close it matched (green). As I expected, the original is too weathered for a direct match. No biggie.

    Looking for a turbo for my M1009

    Great info guys, thanks. I thought about doing the ala cart thing from an HV, but to be honest, I'm not very experienced in this sort of thing. I'm a computer geek, lol, so it may be best for me to purchase a complete kit from Banks, especially since they're very highly recomended. That way, I...

    Looking for a turbo for my M1009

    Yeah, I've been looking through CL and FleeBay but nothing yet and I'm too impatient to wait for a major Holiday, lol but I'll keep looking until I'm ready to order, for sure.

    Looking for a turbo for my M1009

    Yes, I did quote myself. Lol. Ok, I talked to Albert at Bankspower and they still make the kit. They need a week out to put it together. It costs about $2560. If you live in California, add a few hundred $ tax to that :-( I'm just glad I still have friends in Missouri that I visit, lol, so I'll...

    Looking for a turbo for my M1009

    Thanks. I think this is the kit I need (If I end up buying new): Banks Power | 82-93 Chevy/GMC - 6.2L>>Sidewinder® Turbo System Correct? Mine has same issue. If I start up a fairly steep hill under say 55, it dogs out to around 30 t0 35 MPH. People behind me get annoyed, rofl.

    Looking for a turbo for my M1009

    Hmm. Ok. I'll have to look into how to go about all of that. Makes sense, just not sure how to check/measure them for their performance to ensure 100%. Thanks for the tip!
