    So who has bumped the power on a 6CTA cummins

    I'm not certain what the CFM rating is on the filter. I haven't heard of or seen any problems when a turbo is installed on the 250 cummins. I'm not trying to make an obscene power house, just lower EGT's, quicker spool, more low end torque and better effiiciency. Running a dual set-up may...

    They left a nice open space for a second one :D. With the compressor clocked down it's lower than the overflow.

    Haven't taken it apart yet. It's basically schwitzer's version of a NTC350/NTC400 turbo.

    Recap on "cold weather starting"

    Webasto engine heater or similar type heaters are worth it. No plug in required for when your in the bush or just to far for a cord, you can turn them on while your idling or driving to help keep the heat up.

    block heater

    Depends on your block casting. When standing at the passenger wheel look left of the oil filter (towards rear of engine) You should see a frost plug or a plug. All three would require draining coolant. Unless you're really quick :D

    So who has bumped the power on a 6CTA cummins

    Did some checking to back up the words. An A2 style intercooler can only be found on engines up to 300 hp, the 450 hp intercoolers are different.

    So who has bumped the power on a 6CTA cummins

    They already have an air/water intercooler in the intake, easiest thing to do is to separate it from the entire coolant system. Little rad up front, small reservoir and 12v or 24v pump for circulation. The intercooler on these engines is very similar if not the same as the marine versions and...

    It's actually a pair of s300's. Runs like stink. Twins are really the way to go, every truck I've twinned you don't have to pull your foot out due to high egts. Just speed lol.
