We’re quickly approaching the busy Turbo Kit manufacturing season. Right now we’re 2-3 weeks out but, those ETA’s will increase as orders come rolling in. There seems to be a shortage of OEM Turbochargers (that happened last year too), but we’re not alarmed yet, we have multiple vendors...

I’ve got a California Air Compressor. If memory serves me correctly, it’s their most powerful 110v unit and it powers everything I’ve got and accomplishes everything I need it to do. It’s pretty quiet which is nice. Though, I’m not sure how it compares to the options listed above. Mike

Could be the lift pump. Mike

Congrats on the new tractor! The L2502 is a great tractor and it’ll serve you well for many years to come! I have a L2501 and I couldn’t be happier with it and what it has been able to accomplish on my property. I’m sure you’ll get some good feedback and opinions regarding your questions. I...

We need to do more research on the LX engine and platform before we get started but, I believe so. Our goal would be one Turbo Kit that would fit both the LX2610 & LX2620. The LX customer is very, very excited. He's already come by on multiple occasions since we initially talked about the...

It could just be the odd angle of the picture but, it does look like something could be tweaked. I’d request additional pictures from the seller and an explanation regarding the condition. Do you need a loader? If so, I’d caution against purchasing a tractor without one. Mike

I was recently contacted by a local Kubota owner with an LX2610 Cab that wants a Turbo Kit. So it looks like we'll probably have a couple new Turbo Kits for 2026! Mike

^^^^ I'm confused. Have you seen many lift pump failures at 100 hrs? We have a lot of S2T Turbocharged L2501 tractors with well over 100 hrs and zero problems. Mike

^^^^^ One hundred hours is nothing for one of these tractors. Mike

^^^^^ Indeed it does! The factory pump provides more than enough fuel for the Turbo Kit. However, OEM components do fail, especially on older/high hour tractors. One of our customers has had to replace his faulty lift pump on an L3240 tractor. Definitely something to keep in mind. Mike

^^^^ I firmly believe that if the L3240 had the same fuel setting as my L2501, it would have made more power at 2700 RPM. The dyno operator and I were in favor of bumping the fuel setting but, the owner wanted to keep things very very safe. Mike

Excellent question/observation! First though, please keep in mind this particular L3240 customer wanted a very safe fuel setting. He wanted to keep his EGT's below 1,100 degrees in the most demanding situations. Even the dyno operator was asking for more fuel because he knew the L3240 had...

Welcome! Mike

Perhaps the HST+ allows you to hear the Turbo a bit better than the L2501. Here’s a quick video we put together with some cool Turbo sounds: Mike
