Hi Karter, Although the plans haven't been finalized, the setup will most likely include a Garrett Turbo (similar to the one on the HJ75) and a water to air Intercooler. I intend to drive the Cruiser for a couple of months to gauge the overall health of the engine so the installation probably won't occur until early Spring.

In other words, it's just like every other *diesel Cruiser.The more i drive mine, the more im like i can deal with it, until there is an incline of more than 4 degrees for more than a mile or so, then its third gear and flashers
* Normally aspirated diesel. : )

Not so When I was still driving my BJ-70 with 13B-T I could climb just about any mountain in AK in 5th gear doing 65-70mph, as long as I wasn't slowed down by traffic

To be clear, just because the noise level increases doesn't mean you are accelerating.The more i drive mine, the more im like i can deal with it, until there is an incline of more than 4 degrees for more than a mile or so, then its third gear and flashers

I would loose half of those parts in the first 24 hours. I need a one piece do-dad.

Dropped by the shop yesterday and got to see the LED exterior lights in action. (Parking, brake, turn signal and backup).
I was VERY impressed with the results.
