I'd put some power steering in though. On my Grandpa's ranch we have a couple tractors without p/s and some with. The difference is astronomical. Wonder how a turbo would boost performance... Veggieburninburban 10-13-2008, 09:47 PM Link doesn't work for me. farmboy56 10-13-2008, 10:41 PM Turbo dont work too well for offroading. Well I guess it depends on the type of wheeling your doing. Rock crawling I wouldn't prefer a turbo because when you want the power, you want it NOW and dont want turbo lag. Then when the turbo does spool up it might give you more power than you wanted at that time causing you to spill over a large boulder, etc. I could see having a turbo in a mudding truck though. It would boost the performance overall though. Probably make for some better fuel mileage. ercaduceus 10-14-2008, 08:56 AM I saw this posted a while back. I guess it didn't sell or the deal went south. The only thing I don't like is the color. I saw on you tube a supercharged 6.5. Not sure if that is a one off but that would work with off roading. Veggieburninburban 10-14-2008, 09:04 AM Link works now. That is a cool truck! BigBlueChevy 10-14-2008, 02:38 PM there are some turbos that run off thr belt drive instead of exhaust. instant boost. no turbo lag. But i doubt it would just slap right in. Oh well. It is very nice. Take a while to get used to driving in the passenger side though if i actually had the money for it monel_funkawitz 10-14-2008, 08:31 PM Under standard driving conditions vehicle returns 18 to 19 MPG. On longer highway runs 25 MPG + is achievable. 3000 rpm also represents a road speed of 70 mph. Approximate power output for this engine is 200 bhp and 310 lb/ft of torque How in gods green earth does he get that kinda mileage pushing that much weight at 3,000 RPM? Torque454 10-14-2008, 10:13 PM And how does he get 200hp and 310ft lb out of an N/A 6.5? My 6.5 w/ turbo only makes 190, but makes 75ft lb more torque. N/A 6.5s i think are rated at what 140hp? And maybe 300ft lb, if you are lucky. ercaduceus 10-14-2008, 11:16 PM there are some turbos that run off thr belt drive instead of exhaust. instant boost. no turbo lag. Isn't that a supercharger. Go to youtube and type in supercharged 6.5. | ||
