Got everything in, going to start taking inventory and make sure everything is in place. Got a nice little mini-vacuum manifold from IPG, so it all comes from one point. Also in talks right now with Justin @ BlackBear for a starter tune, then once it is up and running we'll nail the tune.

Well if you haven't seen my post in the General section I broke another 4L65e last night...so just as I had everything come in to start the turbo install this had to happen...needless to say the turbo build has been temporarily put on hold for maybe 2-3 weeks as I figure out what to do with the trans.

takin' notes and wish you steady wrenching...

Build a 4l80 and you will have plenty of strength

 

[InTruckDesign]

I am weighing all options right now, rebuild the 4L65 again, do a 4L80 swap...and the last one is get rid of my current tahoe and replace with a 3/4ton suburban...what ever I end up doing the turbo will be going on it.

sell vehicle, find NNBS tahoe with a 6.2L, and put turbo in that

 

[InTruckDesign]

Well the turbo build on the tahoe is officially off the table...after this last issue with the trans. I decided it was time to cut my losses and move on to bigger and better. The tahoe is getting returned back to stock form and is getting replaced by a 2011 Suburban 2500. Once I get a few miles on it I am going to start the turbo build on the 6.0L I'll get in touch with a mod on here so the threads can be merged together...I apologize to all that were looking forward to this build...I am truly disappointed myself as I know it was going to be a monster, well even though the suburban is heavier it will still be a fun street truck and tow *****.

Good luck and keep us posted . Isn't the 2011 Burb a 6.2L or is there a hybrid burb...

 

[InTruckDesign]

Nah, burbs are still the 6.0..I don't understand GM's thinking here but it is what it is.
