2.6 turbo
- Thread starter dirttymaxx
- Start date
Theres too many to list, it really depends on how much you want to spend, obviously Precision Makes some nice units, but their very pricey. Danville seems to have some out in some good runners. Some people have had good luck with Engineered diesel.
2012??? I'd just wait and see what comes around the corner towards the end of 2011 before buying something for 2012. Shoot, the rules with BOB are liable to change between now and then. :thumb:
If you meant for 2011, the up-coming season, then Rob has you covered. I'd probably list them in the reverse order that he did for MY preference but all three of those offer viable options.

Shit i didnt even notice the 2012 :rofl:
I would list your turbo budget then we can respond
, it vary's a great deal when pulling is the plan , there are many great options , I have several borg and garret based turbo's that I have built and machined local , a few I buy from others , custom billet options , ball bearing , journal , ect pretty much skies the limmit .
well i just want some compantys to start looking at and as far as 2012 well im not real sure i will b running with bob by then. i can bet you bottom $$ i will come up with some off the wall crap lol who knows we may just make it a 3.0 truck by then.
as far as money the sky is the limit!!!!!!!
thanks for the info

I've meant to PM/call you as to which of your singles are 2.6 . Hate to bother you though I'm a little ways off from buying.
If I had endless money I would just go on up to 3.0 make it more fun anyways then you wouldnt have to worry about stock drive train issues and strict 2.6 turbo rules
no doubt!! If money is "skies the limit", then by all means, get nutty with a 3.0 dmax. You'd be relatively new to the scene and it allows for quite a bit more creativity with things without pushing gray areas.
I've thought about trying it just to do it but I'd be even worse underpowered probably because I can't afford the build it'd take to be competitive. A moderate ODL truck can be built for similar money as building a strong 2.6 truck if starting from scratch like I am. Of course, like anything, you can get nutty with the top of the line ODL parts too.

thats whats crazy about pulling. i dont think i would even be able to hang with the top 2.6 guys
If we had a 3.0 around here, i would probably think about it, but most of missouri/kansas is stuck on 2.6/2.8. Although i wouldnt want to have to pull with the ITPA very much, their 3.0 class is insane. If 3.0 ever got as competitive as 2.6 there would be just as much arguing/complaining.
well this is just a ideal we have been thinkin about! we have even thought about building a pro mod d maxx ya know the tube chassie kinda trucks now that would be nice!!! lol but who knows one step at a time boys.
you know how them old dirt racers are
now that would be nice!!! lol but who knows one step at a time boys.you know how them old dirt racers are
ha ha ha ha ha ha well now i dont know about that,but i have looked at it! and have we meet? sounds like we have,seeing as the dirt racer thing sparked something. . .
We've just met n passing at pulls. I couldn't pick u out of crowd. I run around with mike & Garrick. We live in same town. Garrick is a good friend of mine.
No dirt trackin for me. I don't have that kinda cabbage. LOL

First thing you could do is get rid of those rediculous stacks, you would probably pickup up 50hp!
Is it actually your truck, or your buddies? I've seen you and the driver but I never see you drivign it? JW
