    K 47 air box

    So my rubber hose from the turbo to the air box is the same? I'm hoping the wrecker still has the complete truck,so I should be able to get all the hardware etc with it.

    K 47 air box

    I'm just trying to figure out if it will bolt onto my 95, and if so are they the same for a gasser as well?

    K 47 air box

    Hello all, Just making a trip to my local auto wrecker and wondering about the k47 air box. What years is it off of,and will it bolt on my 1995 suburban? I did a search but couldn't find the info I wanted. Trying to avoid using an aftermarket piece,but will get the one Leroy sells if I...

    Just got a new Suburban-looking for some suggestions

    And after talking with Leroy this morning,I have ditched the strait pipe idea. DE 4" with new downpipe,and also now thinking about an S&B intake,probably easier than sourcing a K47.

    Just got a new Suburban-looking for some suggestions

    Ok guys-this is a great help,and thanks to all who have responded. I'm ordering a remote PMD kit today to have on hand for when the OEM fails. Im sticking with my OEM lift pump,and will add a fuel pressure guage to keep an eye on things.Ill be moving forward with the OPS mod to limit the...

    Just got a new Suburban-looking for some suggestions

    Turbine doc- this burb is a 95- I was just referencing my 99, so please advise if any of your info is different based on that. I agree that drive ability is step one- PMD is first on the list, however know one has chimed in. Crankme- you are correct- I can't seem to find buddy- or a vendor area?

    Just got a new Suburban-looking for some suggestions

    Thanks Ferm- I have no real noise concerns- the strait pipe on my 99 was only loud with the window down. The cost of the DE is insignificant for sure,but beyond the DP,I'm just having a hard time seeing the need for anything beyond 3" considering the restrictions at the engine. I cant seem to...

    Just got a new Suburban-looking for some suggestions

    Thanks for all the advice guys- Im guessing the airbox is the key to hearing the turbo. My 99 must have had the K47 box,once I opened up the exhaust I could hear it loud and clear. Couple of questions- With regards to exhaust,how much difference is there really between a stock 3' system with...

    Just got a new Suburban-looking for some suggestions

    Thanks for the suggestions Ferm,and for the compliments on the truck guys. Looked for quite some time before pulling the trigger and so far it was worth the wait. Can anyone comment on the lack of Turbo sound? I will do a search regarding the OPS relay,but plan to add a fuel pressure guage so I...

    Just got a new Suburban-looking for some suggestions

    Hello fellow 6.5 ers- I just picked up a beautiful 1 owner 95 Burb 6.5 TD with 98,000 orig. kilometres. First thing I did was check to see if the lift pump was working.....no dice,so ordered and installed a new OEM pump,OPS and fuel filter. The truck runs and drives like new,however,I cannot...

    New project 99 2500hd suburban 6.5TD

    I was not able to find the 255/75 in a tire I liked or in a load range "e" so I ended up going with a 265/75/17 Michelin, which I am very happy with, truck drives beatufully. I am less impressed with the Monroe reflex shocks....well thats half true. The rears are fine, but the fronts seem to be...

    When is it time for new injectors?

    So, are these real bosch injectors for $240? This seems like good value?

    When is it time for new injectors?

    Wow, that is such a nice offer. What would be cool is to get together and maybe have a ride in your truck just to get an idea of what these mods will amount to. Again, this forum is great and everyone is so helpful, Thanks to everyone that chimed in. B

    New project 99 2500hd suburban 6.5TD

    Ok, so I have the good airbox, and cooling which is awesome. The 1 thing I wish I had is 3.73 gears, the 4.10 will be ideal for towing, but not the best for economy which is my main goal. I got the wheels and tires on and removed the running boards and all the cheesy GM accessories. I would...

    When is it time for new injectors?

    Im going to see him at the end of the month for a computer and maybe a turbomaster, his injectors are expensive compared to e bay stuff, does he do anything special to them?

    When is it time for new injectors?

    Hello all, Recently picked up a 99 suburban with 281,000k or 170,000 miles. The truck runs fine, and gets about 15.2mpg(us). Looking at the injectors they appear to be originals but dont know for sure. Aside from removing and testing them, how do you know when its time for new ones, and...
