^^^^ 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

Sure! https://www.messicks.com/parts/kubota/tc820-47452 https://www.messicks.com/parts/kubota/tc820-57510 They’re a really nice upgrade and sturdy floor mat. Mike

It’s good to have options Mike

I recently placed an order from Coleman’s for gaskets and associated parts for our Kubota Turbo Kits and they were less expensive than both Messicks and my local dealers. Mike

We had a successful day at the dyno with the L3240. The L3240 Turbo was able to match my L2501’s 44 HP / 35 PTO HP. However, the owner of the tractor wanted to keep EGT’s well below 1,100 degrees and settled on a fuel setting of 1 1/2 turns which produced 33 PTO HP. It was great to see how...

Turbo brothers :D Mike

The Kubota L3240. Mike

It’s not mine but, we did install a Turbo in an L3240 :D Mike

BXpanded sells a shim kit to increase the loader hydraulic pressure. I’m not sure if it applies to your tractor model but, I believe the parts are universal, I could be wrong. Just make sure you have proper ballast and don’t go overboard with increasing the pressure. Mike

The L2501’s D1703 is manufactured for a variety of applications and power output varies based on regulations for its use. In the L2501 it is significantly detuned. For example, the Injection Pump timing is much more aggressive in the L3240 when compared to a L2501. One thing to consider...

We’re expecting the same, or perhaps a bit more power from the L3240. The L3240’s D1703 engine is spec’d to Tier 2 emissions (compared to Tier 4) regulations and the factory injection timing is more aggressive. One thing to consider, however, is that we have 5 Turbocharged L2501’s that have...

^^^^ You’re very welcome! I’ll reach out to you sometime soon. Mike
