Dear Customer:

You have just purchased the finest, most technologically advanced
turbocharging system available for light truck diesel engines. gale
Banks engineering has utilized the knowledge and experience gained
through more than 40 years of turbocharged engine design to combine
performance, durability and good looks into a professional quality
turbocharger kit. Best performance and installation of your system
will be realized by thoroughly reading and following the installation
instructions before and throughout the installation.

Your turbocharger system operates by utilizing the engine’s exhaust
gasses to spin a turbine wheel, which in turn drives a compressor
through a common shaft. The compressor draws air through the air
cleaner and forces it into the engine at a greater density and pressure
than that which the atmosphere would normally provide. This additional
air will burn more completely the available fuel, or additional fuel,
resulting in greater performance and efficiency. The volume and pressure
(boost) that the turbocharger puts out is controlled by the size of the
turbocharger in relation to the size of the engine, the position of the
accelerator and the load on the vehicle. a small amount of engine oil is
fed to the turbocharger shaft assembly to lubricate the shaft bearings,
and then returned to the engine.

We at gale Banks engineering are confident that you will be pleased with
the performance of your turbocharged diesel and hope we may be of
service in the future.
