Being that my boss doesn’t sound like he’s really all that concerned and doing the single turbo conversion on my 2004 Pete with the Acert C-15 twin turbo in it, if I understand this correctly, that little blue air line that comes from the bottom turbo on the charge air side that goes up into...
Got a slight problem with my turbo, it currently went out on me just recently. The Kenworth shop quoted me $10400 for a replacement turbo and actuator and that includes labor. Should I go back to the replacement stock turbo or opt for a non vgt turbo, manifold and piping for a 1/4 of the price?
So while working on my game i've noticed that there appears to be about two different turbos for the 8V92TA. The TV8301 (1.39 AR) and the TV8101 (1.60 AR) but what is the difference. Is it merely an updated turbo, different turbo's for different power applications, etc?
Can anyone PLEASE help me? I'm a newbie here. Been driving for 35 years. Going back to being an owner operator.
The truck I just bought needs a turbo. Uggghhh!
I have an engine code, but NO part number on the original turbo.

we discussed leaving it with twin turbos or converting it to a single turbo.I`m leaning to...
I do have a serious question I've in a 2013 international Maxx force turbo want spool and I'm only got about 10 psi boost pressure is the turbos going or gone out and will it hurt to drive it or do I need to get it to shop asap
Ok, I have a question about boost. I have a friend that had a 12" crack in his CAC. I mean the air was just pissing out. It was a Detroit and produced 30psi with the crack. When the CAC was replaced it still produced 30psi and no change in MPG.
I got a Detroit 12.7 L. series 60 and the Detroit Dealer said, installed, $3,000, someone told me that I can take it to a Turbo overhauling business that will charge me $300 for the overhaul. The person that told me about the place said he took it off, gave it old and dirty and in one day, it...
I go to sawp meets , always looking for books and other Automobilia, I picked up "GM First 75 Years of transportation"

In my quest to gain mpg's, I recently did an ECM upgrade from PDI. Got lot's more power, but no real MPG gains. I went to their dealer in Dyersville, IA, and he couldn't see anything wrong with my truck. He was the one who convinced me to get the ECM upgrade. He swore I'd get 1 mpg better...
Ok, so I had to make a hard brake friday. When i started to shift gears, The truck made a loud air burst like explosion. When i accelerate, it makes a loud air leak noise. Everytime i passed a dot I let off the hammer.
I have a 2005 Columbia with a c 13 cat, and it won't go past 60mph. There's no black smoke coming from the pipe, but I can hear air near the turbo. Does anyone know what can it be?
I had a driver let a motor coach idle for 16 hours on low idle. The engine died and hasn't been able to start since. I had a local mechanic pull the codes. He gets a ( 200 master ECM) and (20 Mater ECM). It scared him away from working on it. It has oil build up dripping from the turbo, most...
