Man I hate this world of social media and punks hiding behind a keyboard. Can't have a simple conversation without 10 know it alls putting their useless opinions in the way ruining your way to useful knowledge.

And I guarantee none of you bitches would have the balls to say any of this to my face!

Don't have the balls to tell you to your face that it maybe a bad Idea to add a turbo on to a dozer due to it possibly causing bigger problems and simply asking why you wanted to do so. And here I thought I was a touch thin skinned pm me and we'll meet up and I'll gladly tell you the same thing.

Yall act like I'm committing a sin by wanting to upgrade my ****!
Where did we act like it's a sin? All we said was we don't think it's worth doing the mods.

Parts for construction equipment, especially your D4D, are going to be scare and expensive to replace. There is a certain balance between power and reliability, and if the application needs more power, it is ultimately cheaper to get a bigger tractor than to try and force more power out of the smaller one.

You haven't fixed some serious issues with your dozer yet you're wanting to hot rod it. That in itself makes no sense. Nige was right. You had a hissy fit because people didn't tell you what you wanted to here. Now you're you're acting like some kind of tough guy. Everyone would tell you the same thing in person, grow up! The only one acting like a punk is you.

Put some bigger injectors in it. Advance the timing put a turbo on it. Have your cat dealer come out and put a better tune on the Ecm and it should help a little.

On this forum you never really know with so many members. I remember the self proclaimed engineer blaming people on the forum for his aux. hyd's. not working on the badly burnt up 299 he bought.
