Need Better Performance

[Archive]

I have a 92 D250 LE, club cab, 4X4, auto. It has 131,000 miles and runs good, just sluggish. I added a Banks turbo and exhaust (don't waste your money) and a K&N air filter. Does anyone know a shop near Fayetteville, NC. , that does tune-ups or turn-ups?? Please let me know.

Butch,

I have installed a Banks stage III powerpack on my 89 D 250 and I like it alot. I did turn up the fuel like they suggested in the instructions. I would like to have more power than this. I have had mine on for about a year and a half now. Still get 23-25mpg. I would like to know if anyone has monkeyed with the pumps on these trucks to get more out of it. I have been looking at diesel dynamics plunger kit and their injectors. What do you guys think? Does TST , Janetty or anyone else offer anything for the first gen guys??? Please helkp us!!

thanks
Don

My step father has a 92 cc, 4x2, 5sp and had a local shop (Portland, OR) install one of the Banks kits and it definitely improved the performance so maybe something is not set right. He still gets 20-25mpg on the highway and could walk away from my 92 cc, 4x4, 5sp, stock setup.

O. K. GUYS:
Here we go: I've been down the road with the 1st Gen trucks. I highly recommend;
Boost and pyro gages
16 cm hot end turbo housing
Free flow exhaust and muffler
Uprated injectors
K&N air filter
Turned up pump
Get over to Ted Jannetty thru the links section - and get some good advice.
