Review on 🚀 JM Turbo Detroit Series 60 12.7L Turbocharger with Wastegate Actuator - Efficient Performance Boost! by Mike Roberts

I haven't driven many kilometers with this turbo unit, but it runs well and hasn't fallen apart. I liked the low price I got for it and that I could afford to replace the oil separator I had on the engine before the mechanic did a "frame rebuild" on the engine. The exhaust was leaking oil and the mechanic said it needed to be replaced despite not having many miles on it. He installed an EGT sensor on the exhaust side of the turbocharger at the tailpipe and an electronic sensor to get the EGT (exhaust gas temperature) and boost pressure. If you don't have them, consider installing an EGT turbo and gauge(s) to help identify potential problems and protect your turbo, engine and gasket from overheating and pressure leaks. If you have a failed turbo that needs to be replaced, you will need to pressure test the intake manifold, intercooler and entire turbocharger intake circuit to ensure there is no air/pressure leakage or the new turbo will not last long. for a long time (the turbine seals burst and the oil begins to flow), and your engine still has no power or is significantly reduced. Inadequate turbo boost pressure when towing heavy loads (maximum 25-28 psi) likely means an air pressure leak in the turbo intake circuit. Here's what I've seen with this unit: 25-28psi max on heavy climbs. EGT levels seem fine and stay low unless going uphill with heavy loads, especially when outside temperatures are initially high, but even then I think given the circumstances (with a new/new heatsink and charger) is good. ). Air conditioner). When the EGT (with the gauge mounted on the exhaust side of the turbocharger) reaches 950-1000F, shift out a gear and that will help some if you want to protect your engine and gaskets.
