Heath boost master mechanical wastegate is a pricey but EXCELLENT wastegate to use.

 

i figure its called a turbo master but either way its a great way to make these turbos make around 10 psi boost that a 6.2 can take.

 

deffinatly and with some 6.5 head gaskets you can push the j codes to almost 15lbs.

 

actually its the coated pistons that a turbo 6.5 has that allows the high boost levels.

 

that is true, but the weak point on the turbo 6.2s is the head gaskets blowing after 10 psi and the 6.5 gaskets will hold way more than that. the j code heads are simialr to the 6.5s and the head gaskets are interchangable, so for a small price but large amount of man hours its a extra boost for the underpowered 6.2

 

ahh ok

 

i also left out the link for turning up the ip power screw. heres the link to banks site that shows the detailed instructions on how its done properly: http://assets.bankspower.com/manuals/656/96291.pdf

 

how many days off should a guy have to put a turbo on a 6.2 and what kind of power increase can a guy expect? I just put 44'' boggers on my '87 and there are too many miles between third and forth is this a solution or just a dream?

 

it took me about 3 days to get the entire thing done. it seemed to help the giddyup and go quite a bit. didnt help much untill i got a pyro and boost gauge then really cranked up the fuel and boost.

 

awesome i dont need alot of power just enouph to get those balloons turnin alot of guys are talkin about turning the pump an 1/8 turn will this help in the meantime?

 

that will help a little bit. i did that before i got a turbo and it just seemed to make more smoke.

 

ya i dont make any smoke right now the motor is new but has never been tuned

 

give it 1/8 and go from there. that should probably help out some.

 

Well ill try your advise im just one province over in the alberta gumbo lol Thank you

 

ok i read on here that the turbo ends up in the air conditioning box is air still an option it was going to be a project for this spring but i would rather be able to climb the hills lol

 

an S-10 airbox from the same yearrange is supposed to fit. do some searching or create a new thread about it.

 

K thanks i no there arn't many days we need air in canada but i have it on a truck that didnt get enuf warm up time and now has a window in the block lol

 

ooo threw a rod, not good.

 

you dont know the half of it it was my better halfs baby. 1986 burb she used to haul our kids in i had to replace it with a 2009 dodge journey that we would rather have the PAID FOR burb. lol

 

6.2's are easy to find, why didnt you buy another engine?

 

There was alot of rust and it was a 2wd and we had no idea the journey would be such a pita to make matters worse i gave up my 06 charger as a trade in we should have just sold a kid and made room in the charger lol

 

lol great dad you are. lol jk. too bad. when i have a family im gonna try to find me a 4wd 6.2 burb. throw a stickshift into it and a turbo.

 

two thumbs up they are awsome had ours tricked out with a fifteen inch flat screen and surround sound with an 8'' sub take some movies and forget the kids are even there lol

 

nice

 

Thanks again 4320diesel I used a link you had posted on another thread on how to turn up the pump all went well but don't know if it helped much yet tried the hill that was buggin me but from a stop at the bottom forth was still too big of a strech. If not next step turbo

 

i have pretty much the full 6.5 turbo stuff to do the swap if anyone is looking for it will sell it! dont need it!!
