93 TURBO

Does this vehicle have a boost and/or pyrometer guages? You need these to properly set the turbo for the most performance. Depending on what elevation you live in is what presure you set the turbo. Please post additional information.

Hypermax makes a dual guage with both pyrometer and boost.

If you have not already put 4" exhaust on this truck, DO IT!!! This and a K&N filter will help your power and milage without turning up the pump!!! Look into it, it helps.

I know all of you have heard this, but all the international engines seems to have a problem with cavitation errosion. You need to get an additive FW-16, Nalcool, etc.. And also get a good quality antifreeze, for example Cat long drain coolant, Detroit coolant ,and etc. Don't use any cheap crap.
