Dang! Iām 56 and hoping this will be the last new vehicle, but you are giving me second thoughts. Maybe one moreā¦. I do hope I will be able to drive at least into my 80s.
I just ordered a smoke test kit. I am awaiting the TK500 to install both at the same time. When installed, I will smoke test.
I received the email regarding the delays and subsequently received the turbo inlet. I can attest to SXTH standing behind their products. The hot side of my charge...
I did all of these plus an oil change and a transmission drain and fill over the course of two Saturdays. Heavy duty vehicle ramps, an oil pad, fluid pump for quart bottles, 2.5 gallon drain mate and brake cleaner were all beneficial. I also purchased a vacuum fluid evacuator and filler set...
I am hoping someone from OTT will chime in here to make it absolutely clear how the tuning stages work. My understanding is that itās aftermarket parts like these that get you beyond the first, Stage 0.
@QuezJacq
People will argue you down and laugh at you for saying higher octane gives you the best HP. However, I have yet to meet a tuner who wonāt tell you that the best performance comes with higher octane, but I had one who said theres negligible difference between 93 and 100 (race fuel).
Looking forward to receiving the turbo @QuezJacq! I will be skipping stage 2 and going straight to stage 3 this year. A friend and neighbor will be performing the installation. I do not have the patience nor skills past the basics! š
Sounds like a plan! I just changed all fluids in the 20k-21k range. Itās a 24mm socket for the diff, and I recommend getting the short ones, hex. You will want to replace the crush washer as well.
