My that turbo sounds good. So whats with the light bar? Pulling over guys in jeeps and broncos when they get onto trails they can't handle? I'm gonna have to cite you boy for driving a rolling pile and operating without intelligence.

definitely looks to have some get up and go, especially as heavy as I think it is. Any idea on the weight, after the custom body, bumpers, tank, etc? Sound great too, I drive with the window cracked in my Dodge, even in the cold, to hear the turbo spool.

Magpul makes some of the finest firearms accessories you can get. Stocks for M4 rifles, magazines, etc. They have some pretty big military and civilian contracts.

It looks great with everything painted the way it has been. It does appear to need a bit heavier duty of shocks though, as it seemed to bobble forever after going over some relatively small bumps. Maybe my eyes are deceiving me?

Right mix of everything. Lots of "add on's" but still pure mog. And by add on's I mean custom manufactured parts, not bolt off the shelf stuff. Nice execution. Sounds sweet to. Did you have to add squirters to the block or is it an OM352a?

Keeping it under 160 hp. our turbo set up moves so much air through the combustion process it keeps our burn very snappy and complete therefor our EGT.'s are low.
@ the original 110hp setting we couldn't even hit 1000 degree F.on the pyro measured before the turbo.

Our turbo setups our not cheap,but you get what you pay for in good safe long term power, I have to admit I to like to run w/ the window down just to hear it whirr as well.

We'll put more close ups on specific components of this build.There is over 1100 hours put into the design and execution of this Unimog. I wish I could afford one like it for myself!
Thanks for all the (+) responses!!!
