    An interesting air to water intercooler

    I saw this on a video about a car manufacturer in Europe. Pretty interesting set up. I'm sure the price is outrageous but I wonder how it works for diesel applications. Specially someone trying to be sneaky when you're not supposed to have air to water...

    Old PPEI lbz twin turbo kit?

    Anyone got a picture of one installed? Was it really PPEI who made them? I found a used one for sale for an LBZ. I'm curious what the layout looks like. Its got a new Bullseye Billet 480 with it. What's anyone think it's worth? I haven't seen much options for twin kits these days.

    Switchable mufflers

    Anyone have any experience with these? Not sure I can justify the price, but it would go a long ways to may my truck more enjoyable for the family on long trips. I don't even know if I need something electronic even manually switching it would be fine...

    How much is to much fuel pressure for hwy driving/mileage?

    I don't know how long it's been but my mileage has been in the crapper on my LBZ. 15 years ago when I would daily drive my truck with my tuning I could get 19mpg at 65mph and 17mpg at 75-80mph. Now days I might get 16mph at 65mph, 15mpg at 75mph, and 14 at 80mph. Not sure what's all the cause...

    Caltracs vs Traction bars

    I have been in bad need of something to control axle wrap on the LBZ for a while. I'm not looking for something that's gonna get me great 60' times. Ideally I want something that will protect the driveline, won't need lots of adjustments or maintenance, and won't limit suspension travel...

    Oil cooler failures?

    I had a guy telling me there was been a bunch of failures of oil coolers on the new trucks. I hadn't heard that. Is it true? If it is GM sure seems to be trying awfully hard to wreck the reputation it's built with the duramax.

    Tuning computer crash

    Well my hard drive failed on my tuning computer. I bought a new hard drive thay my neighbor was going to install, but it was too late. My neighbor's looking at it to see what can be recovered. I don't have the disk to reinstall the operating system. It was an old window 7 computer. What do...

    Did I just screw up my new coolant reservoir?

    On my '22 I developed a hole in my coolant reservoir. I think its a poor design the way the coolant returns to the reservoir and the way it pools "melted" a hole in the bottle. Thats the dark brown spot next to the return hose at the top if the reservoir. Well in my infinite wisdom when I got...

    Kryptonite death grip traction bar

    Anyone ever try them? I like the design. Just curious if the work as well as they seem and if they require maintenance long term? Source: https://youtu.be/Gt7LStVPmBA?si=4ZV_R4GyXFOpIyB6

    Real happy with new Falken RTs

    I only have 10k on them so far, but they have been great. Tons of traction on and off the road. 2dBs quieter then the old worn out Cooper rugged trek that where on it. Which also seemed like ok tires. I wish these wheels fit on the LBZ so I can see how they handle a lot of power. Really nice...

    Do lower temperature thermostats create issues in DI engines?

    I have my 2022 6.6l gasser that I really like for work. The AC "sucks" though. It probably needs a new compressor because I've heard of plenty of issues with them. However I'm to stubborn to spend $2000 on something I don't have confidence in will fix my issue. The AC works okay other than I...

    Drone videos of my job sites

    Cracked PPE up pipes common?

    I picked up a used set of PPE manifold's and up pipes from a member and found a crack in the driver's side up. They were on his triple turbo race truck. Is this what I have to look forward to if I install these as getting cracks repaired on them all the time? 210k miles on my factory ones and...

    Why aren't L5P heads on older gen trucks?

    Another thread got me thinking about this again. My understanding is one reason the L5P spool so well is because of the heads. I really figured by now people would be machining L5P heads or have their own castings with an L5P style ports. Is there really just not that much of an improvement in...

    Anyone help with trouble shooting 6.6L gasser hard start?

    2022 chevy 2500 and I have an intermediate hard start. The engine turns over fine it just takes longer than it should to fire. First thing in the morning and if I shut it off and restart it shortly it seems to fire fine. It's after it's been parked for an hour or 2 that it seems to give me...

    Diesel pre detonation?

    So over the last few months 3 when I stepped on it my truck pops and bangs for second. The first 2 where when I was on the hwy and went WOT. The 3rd I was going 40mph went I just rolled into it a little hard. The engine was cold that time. It almost sounds like 2 step or anti lag on a gasser...

    Im done with my '20 F250 and ready to go back to GM. I'm trying to figure out if if I want a newer truck or an older one. I've had great luck with all my 6.0 trucks. Put almost 300k on 3 of them. The 6.0 are getting a little older then I think I want. How are the 6.6 gasser holding up? What...
