Duramax 6.6L TURBO BOOST LEAK TESTER- LB7 LBZ LLY LMM LML LP5

Description

Turbo Boost Leak Testers, Inc
is dedicated to making boost leak testers –
That’s it!
We have been producing testers and optimizing the design since 2007 with a few goals in mind - To keep them cost effective, simple and durable.  We also have a new line of Billet Aluminum boost leak testers in every size!
PULL HARDER , IMPROVE MPG & KEEP YOUR MOTOR HEALTHY --BY ELIMINATING BOOST LEAKS!
Test your Duramax 6.6L for leaks the correct way and keep the motor running healthy and tow with confidence!  Many Duramax owners don't even know they have a boost leak until it is diagnosed and fixed then feel the real torque their Duramax was supposed to be putting out!  This easy boost leak test will take 10 minutes and will detect any leaks in any of the charge pipes, cac intercooler, cold side pipes, y-bridge and intake manifold.  All common and potential leak points.
A boost leak will cause the turbo wheels to over-spin to try and make up for the lost pressure.  This puts a lot of strain on the turbo and it will start to develop shaft play from running too fast too hot and poor oiling.  Boost leaks can start out small and eventually turn into a blow-out or worse if left alone can eventually cause the turbo to fail.
For tuned motors running higher boost the leaks present a much more severe over-spinning to compensate for the leak AND the higher boost from the tune.  This accelerates the turbo failure scenario.
It is common that aftermarket parts are installed and not pressure tested, even by some experienced installers - robbing the additional power they were supposed to make.
Avoid costly repairs, especially if tuned, towing or want the peace of mind going full throttle on the pedal every time you hear that turbo spoolin' up!
The main signs you have a leak are:
Lower fuel economy!
Loss of power, torque, poor towing
Whistling noises, as awesome as they sound!
Fluctuations on boost gauge
This boost leak tester will pressurize the whole charge pipe path and detect any leaks including:
all intercooler and charge pipes
CAC / intercooler
every single clamped connection
o-ring connections
EGR leaks
intake manifold
...basically everything the turbo
normally
pressurizes while under boost.
This tester Is compatible with the following:
ALL 6.6L Duramax V8 Engines, Chevy/GMC
Kodiak / Topkick LYE LRX
Express LMM
Savana LMM
2007 - 2016
How to use this tester:
The billet end cap tester will fit inside the stock silicone boot that connects the turbo outlet to the hot side intercooler charge pipe.  Installing the tester here is the most ideal location as its the beginning of the charge pipe path that the turbo pressurizes.   Secure the billet end cap with the provided T-Bolt clamp and start your test with a lower pressure on your compressor and listen for leaks.   The larger the compressor the more filling time you have between it switching on for refill.
Tips using the tester with a schrader valve kit:
Work your way up to 10 PSI, 20 PSI and watch the bleed down rate of the pressure on the gauge.  30 PSI should be sufficient for any turbo system.  Bleed down rate can be used as a check instead of filling the system with pressures over 30 PSI. 1 psi/second is a general rule.  Bleed down is faster at higher pressure and slows at lower pressure.
