Silber has over 3,000 on 2 different XP's without any problems...

 

LOL.. Ill let you know as soon as I get mine back..

 

please post as i am decideing as well thanks

 

I do have over 1100 miles with turbo, probably around 800 miles was on stock engine and rest with BB kit. If you don't go crazy with boost, engine will hold for long time. IMO

But Milos arent you having headaches with exhaust leaks? A clean set up would be v banded.

I'd say Milo's last sentence is best. If the turbo kit is run as designed, they are normally trouble free.

 

1200miles on my K&T. I run the last 1000miles on 15 lbs boost. So far so good!!

 

I bet that setup gets from A to B pretty fast!

Milos thanks for the input. I think I'd be sticking to the mfg specs and go from there.

Any "must-have" turbo reliability parts that don't necessarily come with most turbo kits? I've read about the intake boots being an issue, any comment on that? It would be nice to address any possible issues before they actually arise..

 

200 miles on black widow k&t **lbs of boost!

 

How many lbs u running and on what set up for motor. Just asking mine stock with KT just getting some boost idea and whats done to the motor. Im running lbs race gas stock motor

 

The kit I'm looking to buy doesn't come with a boost or a/f gauges. Is it worth the extra money to buy the aem gauges or do you guys recommend another brand?

 

Nice Dirt Deval!

 

The pro-star engine is proven a tuff engine. IMO, the weak point when running mild(10ish) to high boost(15+) is the valve springs. And if you pull the head for valve springs, you might as well do a set of low comp forged pistons. But if you stay low boost(5-9ish), you should be fine on bone stock engine for many miles. This goes for mostly all turbo kits. My 2cents..

 

springs, pistons, race gas and crank the boost! Dane if you think low boost or 11psi is perfect for you.... dont even race it with someone running 15psi lol after 11 its gets really fun!

 

You guys are killing me. Im digging a tunnell under a bank to get money for a turbo, pistons and valve springs!

Ryan you're a tough and expensive friend to have, haha. How's yours been running? What did you do for the intake boots fix?

 

Don't forget race gas$$ LOL!!

 

Get the k&t billet intake its a must have if your boosting ** numbers! IMO, If you want no problems!

 

couple hundred miles on my turbo setup....no problem at all!!!

 

Silber turbo's have over 6,000 combined test miles on 2 Silber Turbo'd XP's with multiple dyno runs on each...

 

I want to turbo my xp so bad, but just don't want another nightmare like my last rzrs turbo. It spent most trips in the trailer, and the xp is doing so well... but I would love to smoke my xp buddies....lol... oh the humanity...

 

I'm at that point that I want to run pump gas with the turbo but lookin at the big bore cams and springs. Thoughts? To the original post keep the boost down you really shouldn't have any issues as long as you don't run it lean or get detonation. Make sure you have gauges and keep it in check and enjoy the crap out of the new found power!

 

I was going that route but was way more then a turbo and you can just run lower boost on pump gas. Ill bet the turbo faster. Just did mine way better then my 800 turbo Im very happy.
