Installing an AXT turbo kit on my HJ60 is it worth it?

[dogstarmessenger]

I recently imported a HJ60 from Canada and was thinking of installing the AXT turbo kit . I love the truck it runs exellelent but here we have alot of highway hills that seem to slow me down . Was wondering if anyone has ever done it if so how hard was it and were the results worth the price?

I have seen the turbo install performed, not a bad install.

On the other hand you could purchase the Denco Turbo which has oil lines only and is partially pre assembled.

Took us only four hours to install the kit minus the exhaust.

The boost is moderate and would be a good match for the 2H seeing as you do not have oil skirt cooling.

Go for the AXT kit. It is possibly pricier than other options like a DIY setup but I installed the AXT kit on my BJ60 in one day that included running around for other bits and peices that I wanted to incorporate while installing the turbo. The AXT kit is a bolt on setup needing very few "field" adjustments.
It makes a BIG difference when you are faced with hills and high elevation everywhere (like Northern California).
One recommendation with ANY turbo install is a boost gage and pyrometer.
