    new intercooler

    I'm in the market for an aftermarket intercooler, seeing how this thread is a couple years old just asking if BD is still the way to go. Anyone have problems with durability?

    Turbo failure

    Thank you for all of the reply's guys. I'm really trying to get my head wrapped around all the variables and affects different size turbans, compressors and exhaust housings have. One suggestion was to go to a 73-71-13. I was told this works well because dmax engines create lots of...

    Turbo failure

    No DP gauge. At this point I need to not only figure out what is causing the problem but decide if there is a better turbo out there that will suit my needs or to have this HTT repaired. Anyone have any suggestions? Above all I use my truck for hauling and towing but sure like throwing down...

    Turbo failure

    I was able to get my turbo pulled today, here's a few more pics. The exhaust side spins free with out to much end play, it does move in and out a very small amount.

    Turbo failure

    Slightly less when unloaded cruising 70/75mph but not a lot. I have to run at 60 to 65mph to keep it to around 10psi or the fuel economy really drops.

    Turbo failure

    This is an HTT 66-71-13 that I installed almost 3 years ago, it has roughly 30k on it. While on the roll I laid into it and got a loud pop, my first guess was that I had poped a intercooler boot... No such luck. [/IMG] Any ideas on what causes turbo failure like this? Before I...

    S&B air intake help.

    It's good to know I haven’t lost my marbles. Thanks the replies guys, S&B has the right kit being shipped to me.

    S&B air intake help.

    I'm waiting for a call back from S&B, the part number on the box (75-5037) and instructions are for a LB7.

    S&B air intake help.

    A couple of pics, the hood will barley shut with the height of the intake tube and I reread the instuctions just to make sure I didn't miss some thing. I hate it when 30 min job turns into this! [/IMG][/IMG]

    S&B air intake help.

    I am in the process of installing a S&B intake on my truck (LB7) and can't for the life of me get the plumbing to fit right, I have a HTT turbo on the truck and what gets me is the stock air box fits fine. It looks like I need to shorten the intake adapter on the turbo to make it fit. Has...

    HTT SS vs steel

    Wolf sorry I must have been responding to Trents info when you posted. Thank you for the responce, it sound like the ss housing is a huge improvment. Another question, the 13 cm will spool quicker than the 16cm, will the 13cm give me lower egts than the 16 while towing?

    HTT SS vs steel

    Thanks TrentNell, now that's first hand experience! I don't race my truck so all this is for fun but I do tow heavy loads at times ( 10' Arctic fox camper in the bed with a equipment trailer in tow, w/ around 12,000lbs of crap on it), is there a enough gains to make it worth pulling the turbo...

    HTT SS vs steel

    Hello, does any one have a side by side comparison on the ss vs steel housings from HTT? I ordered a 66-71-13 in ss and received a 66-71-14 in steel and was told the ss housings are on back order. The vendor offered to send me the ss housing when they come off back order or a partial refund...
