^^^^^ Great to hear! The Turbo Kit provides a massive amount of power. You’re not even breaking a sweat yet….wait until to get a real load on that beast…you have TONS of power in reserve. Mike

You’re welcome. What we’ve found, is that there isn’t a particular fuel setting that will work to maximize power and performance on every tractor. We believe this is mainly because of the varying tolerances of the injection pumps themselves and the injection pump installation at the factory...

The L3240 uses the D1703 engine, same as the L2501. There are differences but, both engines are virtually the same. He bought the L2501 Turbo Kit, so he’s running the same OEM Kubota/MHI TD025 as the rest of us. He has modified the fuel settings. I believe he’s currently + 2 1/4 turns like...

I realize everyone isn’t visiting each “Turbo” thread posted in this forum. So, I thought I’d share a truly amazing L2501 Turbo Kit installation on a non-L2501 tractor! An OrangeTractorTalks forum member has successfully installed the S2T L2501 Turbo Kit on his Kubota L3240 “Grand L40” series...

I spent all day running the tractor up and down the hills dumping storm debris into my burn pile. Today definitely felt like spring. Mowing season is quickly approaching… Mike

Looks fantastic! You’ve been busy! Man, looks great! Thanks for posting pictures! …and yes, your shop is awesome! I’m definitely looking forward to your impressions once you get everything finished. Once again, great work! Mike

That’s a good looking Turbo Kit! I think I recognize that one! :D We’re really looking forward to your install and are interested in the modifications that will be required to make the L2501 Turbo Kit work on your application. We have several other L3240 owners interested in your progress as...

Correct. You basically just run the new power up to the factory HST relief limits. On the L2501, for example, those relief limits can’t be met at the factory HP level. The tractor stalls before it gets there. But, with the Turbo, you can reach them easily in Medium and High gear. Luckily...

Just a bit more power… Stock - Kubota L2501 HST: Engine Horsepower - 24.8 HP Engine Torque - 70.2 LB-FT PTO Horsepower - 19 HP S2T Turbocharged - Kubota L2501 HST (as tested on the AW AG.2X PTO Dynamometer): Engine Horsepower - 44.1 HP Engine Torque - 109.8 LB-FT PTO Horsepower - 35 HP But...

We have lots of folks waiting for their warranties to expire before they purchase a Turbo Kit. We’re certainly okay with that. We’re probably 12-18 months away from releasing the L2502 Turbo Kit. Mike

You’re certainly entitled to your opinion. But, the L3560 weighs at least 600lbs more than the L2502. In that case, the OP would be better off with an L3902 which basically weighs the same as his current tractor. The main issue with both the L3902 and L3560 is that they’re both powered by N/A...

That’s the first I’ve heard of the bulletin not fixing that issue. Very disappointing. I’m sorry to hear about your situation and experience. Mike

‘Some’ early L2502’s had smoking issues caused by out-of-tolerance factory injection pump shims. To my knowledge, that issue is resolved, under warranty, with the dealer replacing the injection pump shims to the correct tolerance. Mike

The L3560 would also be a poor choice for the OP since it’s also an N/A model. The L3560 is underpowered for its weight, especially at elevation. We’ll be looking into Turbocharging the L3560 once we can find a reliable ‘tuning’ partner. Mike

^^^^ This. Nothing wrong with upgrading to an L3902 from a L2502. However, with both tractors being N/A, you will most likely be disappointed in performance. I’m not sure the tasks you perform with your tractor and the tractor weight you require but, I would be looking at either a larger...
