2021 3500 CCSB HO Build

[GPurcell01]

Fleece coolant bypass ordered. Opted for the older 4th gen version with black hose

 

[GPurcell01]

Been in contact with Turbo Time. Fun things to come in the next couple of months.

Will be pushing the VGT pretty hard.

Purdy. This is going to suck to install. I'll be doing it while the turbo and manifold are out for more room.

Curious on the long term update of that add a pack. I’m guessing it’s a little rusty now as it seems the aftermarket leafs paint wears away quick. I’m about to buy it, almost was going to go for Thuren leafs and Carli long travel bags but the almost $2500 vs $5-600 is hard to justify if I can gain some smoothness out of the add a pack and going to a 35” tire on 18” wheels and ditch the OEM 20s. Also going to add in Thurens shackles at the same time.Thanks

Quite satisfied with the add-a-packs still. They tow my TT very nicely with minimal squat. Ride quality has a good improvement pair with the shocks but can still tell the truck will handle a lot of weight if that makes sense. 10/10 would buy again.

Switched over to an LBF tune in prep for what's to come. Dang... I gotta say it drives great with the extra fueling down low. Should've been running this all along.

Talked with their engineer. I ordered a 66.9/67 VGT. This is the largest and first of its kind that they've done on a 4.5 gen truck with the new turbo design. Should be a lot of fun as it utilizes their HXR billet wheel and a 10 blade turbine

Got a sneak peek from Turbo Time. It will be shipping tomorrow!







I will be re-using my own actuator as it only has 40k on it. When it eventually dies, I'll get the City Diesel billet actuator

Got damn son!!! Hell yeah

Like a kid on Christmas lol. Turbo got delivered fast. Huge shout out to Turbo Time for a quality product and probably the best interaction with a company as a customer

Very nicely packed and came with all new gaskets for install








The billet wheel is gorgeous



Proper Holset CHRA





Proper shot of the 10 blade turbone



The machining on this turbo is amazing. They made it nice and smooth and there's no lip where the machine work ends



They told me the engineer babied this thing while building it and I can definitely see that to be true. This is going to be a fun install!

 

[GPurcell01]

I want to keep staring at it but I need to get it off the counter before my wife gets home lol

 

[Darkone]

it is completely acceptable to use truck parts as centerpieces. As long as they are worth looking at.

Edit… and your wife isn’t home

Hun, look! Gotcha a new salad shooter!

 

[GPurcell01]

If anyone wants to buy the turbo... I'll sell it for $2500 plus shipping. I'll eat the core charge.

Buying a house is fun lol

Deciding to buy a house way quicker than expected has caused me to have to downsize!

Let me know if you're interested in any of the parts. I know you have a build going on and work on multiple trucks.
