Excellent install video! We installed mine on my 2025R Thursday night. Went pretty smooth. I left my turbo clocked a little. Sounds like it came clocked over at angle same thing as yours was. I didn’t catch there was a way to adjust it. But looking at how it hits that hose, in your video, I think I wait see what everyone else is doing there, before I go back and adjust mine to vertical. I did shorten the rubber hose to prevent the bulge , as well as the oil return line to prevent any droop which I thought would creat an oil trap if I left the droop in there.
Nice! In the "secret" video that Kevin made for us pre-order types, he addresses straightening the turbo oil drain thing. My oiler T that screws into the block came damaged so I'm waiting on a replacement.
@@mymorristribe I remember he said something about it in the secret video but I didn't recall him showing how to adjust it. I didn't catch that about loosen those screws, to clock it to vertical. So far I am very pleased with performance. I have some videos posted showing hill climbs and acceleration test that those hill climb all required low range in the past. Now I can climb them in high. I think you will really like it once you get it that part replaced and get it back up and running.
@@jdfleetguy28 I watched those videos. Really impressed with it being able to climb those hills. Did your turbo exhauster riser gasket (metal gasket) seem to not be cut just right?
@@mymorristribe It maybe was off a little, nothing I really gave a second thought on. I think I fought the rubber hose that I ended up cutting it to get it to not bulge out. I also cut the oil return line pretty much the same amount as you showed in your video, only I did it in 3 separate increments till I had looking just right, without any sags / oil traps in the line. I was nervous I would cut too much off and and it wouldn't reach without pinching it or something. I know with my turbo still being clocked to the side a bit; I did not have that line hitting the intake hose. I was actually curious if at one point Kevin had it clocked like that and later forgot why he had it clocked like that. LOL
I just did my install this afternoon and my tractor is a 2016 as well. For the exhaust bracket referenced at 2:00, I had a small "shield" that was bolted in that location; I just drilled a hole through it and bent it slightly so that it and the exhaust hanger could be bolted to each other.
Hi, I have a 2016 also, on the oil line problem rubbing on the intake hose I just loosened the clamp and rotated the intake air hose up so it cleared the oil hose, it looks weird but it doesn't touch now. The Tee on mine wouldn't screw into the block so I bought a different one and it didn't want to go in either, so I just gave it a couple taps with a BFH to start the threads and it worked. Mine had a little bracket for the exhaust pipe I just had to drill a hole in the side of the tractor bracket so the pipe bracket could be bolted. All in all it works GREAT.
I have a 2017 and have the same observation you had throughout your video. I am a bit worried about the intake hose as well, it is at a funny angle and looks to have to much rubbing on the oil lines. I had to adjust my air filter a bit to try and make it work.
I will say that the turbo has cut vibrations down soooo much that maybe it won't be a problem. But I did reclock the turbo so the oil line isn't rubbing.
Says all anyone needs to know about quality.Seems like they didn't do their homework and just threw something together. This is exactly why I never ever buy the first run of anything.
Maybe, but it's impossible for me to stress how happy I am with this turbo kit, even with the drama. It's made my tractor a totally new machine especially since I live at 8000' elevation.
You are so wrong. First, that engine is commonly turbocharged on other applications. Second, it provides probably 25-30% more power. It's extremely noticeable when driving up steep hills or using my snowblower or woodchipper as the engine does not bog down anymore. Third, I'm at 8000' elevation and my tractor would sputter pretty bad when starting and operating at high rpm. It completely smoothed all that out. It's a total game changer for the 1025R. As for longevity, Tractor Time With Tim has had one on for years.
Excellent install video!

@@jdfleetguy28 I now wish I'd left my clocked a bit. I think it would have been better.

Interesting, mine didn't have anything near there that I could use. I made a simple metal bracket and bolted it up.

It definitely works amazing! But, you gotta unscrew the fuel screw 3 turns to really see huge power gains.
@@mymorristribe I did.

Complete waste of money and a quick way to loose longevity out of this engine

Are you ever gonna make a kit for a Kubota bx 2680
Gotta ask hydrosplus.
