Turbo Tube !!!!

I happened to come across this little beauty on another forum and tracked the manufacturer down to our very own Killerbee !!!! It's really quite shocking how choked down the factory hot side pipe is compared to his custom pipe. For anyone looking for a modest bump in boost.....say 1-4 psi of reclaimed boost this is a heck of a good mod. Fit on the LMM was very good and the ceramic coating is a nice touch compared to the bare metal factory piece.

Should be the same......I don't think it was specifically designed for the LMM but fit like a champ.

BOOST TUBES, 04.5-09
The stock LLY-LBZ-LMM boost tubes are undersized from previous models, from 3” to
2.5”. The enormous amount of restriction in these tubes forces the turbo compressor
must work extra hard to deliver the air pressure and volume demanded by the PCM.
Higher turbo vane loads and lower max boost is the result. Eliminating this added
restriction permits the turbo to enjoy better longevity and reduces the amount of heat
produced by the compressor. Includes mandrel bent, ceramic coated 3” hot-side tube,
550 F, high temp 4-ply silicone coupling and required Stainless T-bolt
clamps……………………………………………..…..……..BOOST TUBE KIT $250

This is right out of his catalog.....

This is a good upgrade for anybody!! KB knows his stuff when it comes to the dmax. Especially for a truck like Todd's where he's trying to squeeze every bit out of it he can!!
