    818 now with turbo and pics.

    I think what they are getting at is that a M939A0 or M939A1 (not M915/M916/M920/etc), which are still NHC250's (non turbo), would be easier to add turbo, crossover pipe, and a water to air intercooler because of the increased engine-hood clearance. The M939A2 has the newer, turbo charged 6CTA...

    818 now with turbo and pics.

    I disconnected and plugged the air cleaner tester connection on the manifold. I also disconnected the cold start system and replaced it with a either injection. I am pretty sure it is necessary to disconnect and plug the air cleaner tester but I am not sure if it is necessary for the cold...

    I purchased all of my Al tubing and silicone connectors from www.siliconeintakes.com. I have two 24"x3.5" 90* Al elbows and two 3.5" silicone connectors left over from my turbo conversion. If they can help let me know.

    I ordered a Turbocator from the same website that other mambers ordered their's from back in May and have yet to receive it. It is listed as 'in stock' and isn't backordered or anything. They haven't returned any of my calls or texts (I can't remember if I ever emailed them). I guess I can't...

    I assume that by now you have solved your hood clearance issue. If you are still stuck, I would recommend rotating the compressor end of your turbo toward the engine then using a 45* silicone elbow. That is how I solved the same problem. I am not sure what you are getting at with your hot...

    I hadn't thought about going remote. I like your ideas but they do sound like a bit more money than I was wanting to spend. In fact I couldn't believe how much adding the turbo as it is now cost me. I thought that since I got the turbo and exhaust manifold for only $200 that I wouldn't be in...

    Turbo Drain Connection Let me know if you can't figure everything out from this picture, I can take others. Mine had a 3/4" NPT (I think, but maybe 1") plug in that hole . I removed it and installed a hose barb for 1" hose. The hose is a 7/8" wire reinforced hydraulic hose. My turbo had a ~7/8"...

    The turbo/exhaust manifold combo that I bought wasn't going to fit any other way otherwise I would have gone with normal configuration. My way seems less desirable since the exhaust is routed in a complex manner and that the air flow at speed blows the heat from the turbine side to the...

    Here is the pics I promised a couple weeks ago, I forgot. Notice mine is installed backwards (intake side to the rear) of the way they normally are, it was the only way I could get it to fit. So your results may vary but I hope the pics help.

    I can post a pic of my air cleaner and associated ducting when I get home tonight, although I ran my turbo with the air suction to the rear, so yours will probably end up differently. To add to the previous post, is any extra support needed to be added when moving the air cleaner to the...
