Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hey i'm not sure what you mean with the yellow wire? thanks

Hi guys, I recently installed an aftermarket turbo on my 5L hilux, I just received a turbo timer off a mate and it didnt come with a wiring diagram, It has 3 wires coming out of it, red, black and yellow. I'm not sure what wires go with what. Would appreciate any help in installing this. Thanks

I think I may have solved the leaking oil problem, I didnt relocate the rocker cover breather, so pressurised air was going into the rocker cover, so I hooked it into the low pressure side of the turbo. Hopefully that fixes the oil issue, Also I think I noticed a leak out of the manifold, so that ...

Yeah I thought the wastegate may be the issue, Im picking up another surf turbo tomorrow, so I will have a look at it when I pull it out. The vanes on the turbo were fine, spun easy. Whats the easiest way to tap an oil return into the sump? Is it hard to drop the sump on a 5L hilux? does the diff ...

I didnt get my EGTs checked, my temp guage doesnt go over half still. But I will c how it all goes when I get another turbo and run it into the sump. Hopefully that fixes everything up.

The oil was leaking out the exhaust and out the intake side I think. Is it easy to drill into the sump? I'm not sure what the problem is with my turbo but I do think I need a new one. Did you get a dyno reading? If so how much power did you get? On the dyno reading it said at my max power output it ...

Hi guys, just wondering if I could get your opinion on this topic. I have just put a CT 20 turbo on my 5L hilux, I got it dyno tuned and they said the turbo was boosting too late, around 3000rpm instead of 2000rpm. and I am getting too much psi out of it. I have also noticed oil leaking too, But I ...

Cheers, What model do you have? Have you had any trouble with the turbo being on your car? that was my main worry, something happening to a reliable car. Is it a big job to drop the sump?

Hi guys I own a toyota hilux 5L 3.0ltr diesel, I recently bought a turbo kit off a surf, im after any advice on installing it or a good mechanic in brisbane to install it.. I think i could install it myself its just the oil feed and return which are the bother. also money is the main issue, I dont ...

Thanks for all your posts guys, keep them coming..

Yeah Iv heard people say that its ok to do it then iv heard the opposite. what turbo you looking at getting and what car you got?

Hi, I own a 97 toyota hilux 5L 3ltr diesel, I have done 280000km's, I am wondering whether I have done too many km's for a turbo to be installed.. I dont want to risk engine damage, but would like a bit more power.. I wouldnt run much boost or flog it. it does not use much oil also.

Hey guys, appreciate your help, Does anyone know anything about the IHI RHF5 water-cooled, ball-bearing turbo? just wondering if this will suit my 5L hilux? Is it the right size? will it spool low enough? thanks

Thanks for the reply mate, If I decide to just build up on the mitsubishi tdo4 turbo I have, how do i go about finding a manifold that I can use with it? Is there a place where I can find second hand gear, Or second hand turbo kits?

Hey guys I own a 97 toyota hilux 5L 3.0ltr diesel. I want to install a turbo for it, but i dont want to spend the big bucks to get a brand new kit. I currently have a mitsubishi tdo4 turbo charger, but am not sure how i can go about getting all the other gear needed.. Also i saw a second hand DTS ...
