You see where your issues are, and gotta chase what you see as most important.
4 oz in 50 miles caught by the cko provent with the cko stainless filter is a descent amount. It would double the amount imo with the real filter in the cko housing.
Buy the filter from an authorized Mann & Hummel...
Fiy- ran across this video that a cummins shop made. For folks that think porting heads doesn’t apply to turbo diesels-
Go watch multiple of their videos and others showing dyno numbers of no other changes than stock to ported heads. Remember experience makes the differences- knowing what to...
If you can elaborate on this please. I understand basics of turbos, and see details like t4, twin, etc but rather than my 2c on them - I prefer your explanation and experience with it for my better understanding as well as others.
Draw backs besides physical size (request for dimensions of it)...
No link but side note for centermount - myself and several others have often thought a t4 twin scroll centermount very similar to the ATT would have been the ideal stock turbo for the 6.5. Magically finding it- well we didn’t have searchable data bases that might exist now.
The last link a comparison of ATT to HX40ii was spoken of but not shown.
Here is @WarWagon doing a dyno comparison of the two.

If my friend from Az still has these files in his computer- a request to repost the dyno numbers in...
This link is to the HX40ii kit @racedaymechanic created.
https://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/threads/hx40ii-turbo-install.33368/
His kit works well with the cko as well as authentic hx40. I never owned one but seen one in use. Any current input on how long these turbos lived, regrets of the cko...
My intent is to link together the most useful turbo threads for people trying to determine turbo comparisons into one thread rather for reference. Kind of a turbo sub thread in the performance section. If you come across any comparison threads you feel relevant, please add the link.

Glad to see you’re still around and it’s just a fluke he couldn’t reach you.
How many miles have you been getting out of the Cater pumps now? Do you get much feedback from customers? Used to be those did ok but by time a guy puts on 150k miles is was better to do the more expensive ones. If...
you put one pressure sensor before the turbo and one after the turbo.
The differential of the two is your drive pressure ratio. Ideally you want equal numbers because this means free flowing exhaust through the turbo showing good efficiency driving down the highway. But when you are...
You have to make sure they are rated for ethanol/ methanol. It’s in our diesel fuel now and deteriorates it from the inside out. Most of it is not capable of withstanding it.
If you have stainless steel line - bend it in slow radius bends. You could have solid line from the ip back to the ffm when mounted on the intake manifold. It would have to be secured like the injection lines are. That would work great.
You still need a flexible line that goes from the truck...
I am partial to the Moog problem solver parts.
They got a horrible name some years back before people started realizing they were Chinese knock off parts being sold in boxes made to copy the packaging exactly, and the parts looked right. But the metal used and tolerances made were total junk...
If you can- take a few pics along the way and do a dedicated thread for it. There are others it will help and little details you otherwise may forget years down the road, you can come back here and look exactly how you did it.
If you simply pack some silly puddy or bees wax around the air...
If you were going to keep it a while I would say get a powermaster 9052.
But you haven’t mentioned how much longer you plan to run it.
Probably an Oriellys special is better if it is on its way out.
Get another filter unit wether another van type or aftermarket. With it running properly there...
So there is instructions not to use starting fluid. The known issue is it can blow a head gasket, lift a head plumb off, etc.
The other reasons are: it destroys glow plugs by crystalizing the surface. They will ohm out good (use normal power) so electrical testing will SAY they are good. But...
