    Is there a way to “tune” a L4060 into a 4760?

    I’d love to fabricate and install a Turbo on the L3560, it’s the perfect candidate. However, even after some research, I haven’t found a reliable source to tune the ECU. But, I’m still looking and evaluating alternative solutions. Mike

    We have L2501 Turbo Kits operating in; Washington (x2) Oregon California New Mexico Colorado (x2) Canada (x2) Louisiana We’re getting plenty of positive feedback. Most folks are able to install the Turbo Kit in 2-3 hours without too much hassle (always best to have a second pair of hands)...

    It depends. I have two reasonably sized Kubota dealers within 30-40 miles of my home. One of the dealers has a dyno, the other does not. The dealer that doesn’t have a dyno used to have one but, sold it because it saw little use. My other dealer is in more of a rural area and the dyno is...

    I haven’t been using my tractor very much this past month. We’ve been getting a TON of rain but, no snow yet. However, I’ve been in contact with a couple guys in the high elevations and they’re reporting the Turbo Kit is providing effortless power for their snow blowers and both tractors are...

    Need advise on L series package

    Either tractor L2502 or L3902 will do the work you’re planning on doing. If the extra $4K is in the budget and you don’t mind the emissions complexity, I’d go with the L3902. My L2501 has been just about perfect on my “hilly” property but, for the few times I’ve needed a bit more power for the...

    Reservations about an 8 y/o L3901 HST

    The Kubota Grand L model (and L4701) in regards to size is in between the Standard L and MX series tractors. I’d suggest looking at some examples. Mike

    The B2650 Project: Turbo Edition

    ^^^^ It is certainly worth mentioning after your recent findings, some of the L2501 Turbo guys are running the Turbo Kits as altitude compensation only, like yourself and their fuel systems are untouched and unmodified. So there is no fuel adjustment (no additional or increase in fuel). These...

    Giving Up on Buying a New Kubota

    Yes, correct. There were several reasons but, an unwillingness to help with specific customer needs was a factor in their closing. Mike

    Giving Up on Buying a New Kubota

    LOL, yes. They had plenty of new Super Duty’s, F-150 crew cabs, Mavericks, Bronco’s and the rest. Often times, when a dealership is mismanaged and doesn’t want to assist and help customer needs (like refusing to order/dealer trade for a vehicle), they will go out of business. This was the...

    Giving Up on Buying a New Kubota

    Perhaps it’s precisely this manner of thinking that lead to our local Ford dealer going out of business this past month. Mike

    The B2650 Project: Turbo Edition

    ^^^^ Congratulations!!! It looks great! Well done! I look forward to your future posts detailing the performance improvements. Did you increase/add more fuel? Also, I’d be curious to learn of your EGT readings. This data will be useful for any other forum members looking to add a...

    I think you’re right. At least, that’s where the data is leading. I just need a few more examples to come to a conclusion. So, the other L2501 Turbo w/ the injection pump timing mod basically made the same power as my tractor. However, it required a greater load from the dyno to reach the...

    I have some exciting news! We've had our second successful L2501 Turbo HST Dyno! His L2501 was tested with ambient temperatures of 70 degrees and 100% humidity at sea level. It made 34 PTO HP @ 2,105 RPM with fuel set a 2 1/4 turns!!!! His tractor maintained 1,200 degree EGT's, made 9 PSI...

    I may have already mentioned it but, we are redesigning the Turbo outlet/down-pipe on my Tractor. We're trying to make the pipe easier to reproduce for Turbo Kits and the current pipe takes a very very long time to fabricate. The new pipe will have additional clearance for the...

    Knowing what you know now, would you buy the same tractor again?

    ^^^^ I think a lot of us 'would' have purchased the L3901 / L3902 if it didn't have emissions and computer controls. Luckily, I have a Turbocharged L2501 with 44.1 HP without emissions or computer controls and I don't have any regrets. Mike
