    6.2/6.5 Turbo Build

    Yes you can pregame and install the 4911 and 6.5 injectors on a 6.2. It will run and drive but you will get a lot of over fueling, black smoke and increase your temperatures. More power too! I would personally wait until the turbo is installed before you add more fuel. IMO Before you do...

    6.2/6.5 Turbo Build

    I have a friend that has a banks turbo set up without the turbo for $400. Everything I would need except the turbo. I am thinking if I bought it from him could I put the 6.5 turbo on the Banks Exhaust Manifold? Would that be a better set up?
