Yea ya can mickey mouse one on and watch all the U TUBE EXPERTS . I have no idea what your thinking you are going to gain by this . It's UTILITY tractor , like said before Limited COOLING limited clutch capacity with now much wiggle room and not to even get into transmission and rear end . How much gain by adding a turbo to me on that engine not enough to waist the money nor the time . A slight bump up of fuel will give a better result as she maybe a wee bit low on that BUT before i would even go there i would run it on the dyno to see where it is at and do a major tune up FIRST . Now where would i dump return oil i would dump into the timing cover and before i even started i would get a guide line on HOT running oil pressure to see what i had BEFORE then after to see if i had a reduction in oil pressure . . The next down side is WILL this cause head bolt stretching and head gskt. failure . The old TD 8 E dozers ran the about same engine with a turbo , BUT Turboed engines Run lower compression ratio , the head chambers have a different flow along with oil cooler jets that spray oil onto the bottom of the pistons off the main bearing saddles . You state you do not have the money to go a larger tractor and if this is the case YOU may find you don't have the money to repair what you screwed up . Now i am by no means and expert on the T D 8 E as i do not work on yellow iron it give me HIVES and causes more consumption of Al-KI-HOL . BUT i w2ould dig into the changes on that engine as to what you have in a AG tractor and the difference in Hp. gain . The T D 8 E's i have ran never impressed me at all .
