You are much closer to them than I, so shipping shouldn't take as long. matuva 08-31-2009, 12:57 AM TM is coming from Bill Heath. John Kennedy prefers tweaking vacuum actuated systems RCpullerdude 08-31-2009, 01:01 AM TM is coming from Bill Heath. John Kennedy prefers tweaking vacuum actuated systems Kennedy does offer a TM though. As far as one in Canada though, AFAIK, you'll have to build one, have someone build one, buy a used one, or have one shipped across the boarder. matuva 08-31-2009, 03:16 AM You can make it yourself or you can probably have it shipped across the boarder from Kennedy Diesel or Heath Diesel.

You're right guys, he does too. Next time I'll check twice and read better ;) Green Machine 08-31-2009, 03:28 AM slap on my mouth. You're right guys, he does too. Next time I'll check twice and read better ;) Its ok, I checked before I posted because I wasn't 100% sure he sold turbomasters or not lol :rolleyes: Liftemhigh 08-31-2009, 08:04 AM do you have a welding shop near by. a napa auto parts. i could run in to mine get part numbers for the pieces and see if i still have an old diagram of the ones i made. so all you have to do is cut them out and put it together MissionScott 09-04-2009, 08:04 PM Got Mine for about $110 CAD from BD performance in Abbotsford. Just google them figment 09-05-2009, 01:13 AM First I would like to thank dtreid for this post.:D I too am looking for one, I didn't want to have one shipped from the US because to get it across the border, they, (the shipping companies), charge just as much to get it across than it did to buy the ruddy thing. Thus having to pay twice as much just to get it here. Got Mine for about $110 CAD from BD performance in Abbotsford. Just google them Second I thank you MissionScott for the info, I'm just waiting on my Autometer boost and pyro gauge, so I don't over do it. I would hate to kill my engine before I actually enjoy it. :D Liftemhigh 09-05-2009, 07:33 AM nice to hear. here in northern Ontario there just over $200 a little much. that is why i built it. i was saving for a heath ship. but thats on hold for now. don't forget to put in a pyro and boost gauge to keep track of the temps and boost. wordtoyourmom 09-05-2009, 12:57 PM Aren't there a bazillion how to threads on making your own here? Frankly, I think $100 for a piece of metal with a spring on it is completely frickin outrageous. I'll be building mine... Dieseldad97 09-05-2009, 01:06 PM Super easy to build I agree. Of course I had a friend make mine while I visited hahaha. Nice to have friends. But like others have said, do buy a boost gauge so ya don't get all excited with all the new found power and blow the heads off your truck. WhiteK2500 09-05-2009, 02:57 PM Super easy to build I agree. Of course I had a friend make mine while I visited hahaha. Nice to have friends. I put 0$ into mine, and got paid to make it.... Don't ya just love it when the manager says "find something for now" then never comes back to give ya a job to do? :D I don't have mine on the truck though... Found very little difference in the seat of the pants between it and the vac system, except the vac system didn't make me defuel every time I go on the highway.... But like others have said, do buy a boost gauge so ya don't get all excited with all the new found power and blow the heads off your truck. HAHAHAHAHA! Damn, thats about the funniest way I've seen someone say "don't overboost" :p: Nice one. DangerousDave 09-05-2009, 03:19 PM :rolleyes: There are WAY too many posts and pics on homemade TM setups. If you want to buy somebody else's efforts, go for it. You may want to pay someone to install it and calibrate it, as they all need to be set with an ACCURATE boost gauge under load. I had to readjust mine 3x at first, then 1 more time after some months; wife got a SES turbo code. Lowered the boost s l i g h t l y more, no more codes; :D 4 words, {happy wife= happy life} Nice collection of diesels, dtreid. figment 09-10-2009, 02:14 AM Have found something better to save my pennies for. Actually started throwing twenty's in the jar.....:rolleyes: | ||
