4) Pump Gas. Fuel requirements are very important. The SideKick line of BoonDocker turbos is tuned to handle 91 octane non-ethanol fuel, above 6,000 feet. Many gas stations use blended pumps (meaning the same hose that delivers 91octane non-ethanol will also deliver the 85 octane ethanol). If the previous customer filled up his minivan with cheap fuel and you pull in behind him to fill your sleds with the higher grade fuel, there could be up to two gallons of 85 octane in the line before the 91 octane actually starts coming out of the hose … so the first portion of your fuel may not necessarily be what you think it is. You may want to consider pumping the first couple of gallons into your truck or your wife’s 600 before you fill up your turbo sled.) When it comes to purchasing fuel, always error on the side of caution to prevent cheap gas from getting into your sled. These are high performance machines, and we need to remember to treat them as such.
5) Quality. BoonDocker doesn’t just sell turbos, it goes to great lengths to ensure the quality and consistency of the turbo kits it produces. There are jigs for every product to ensure the parts all fit exactly the same as they were designed. From the materials used for the welding to the workmanship, everything is designed and engineered to last. BoonDocker is a fully-staffed R&D and fabrication company whose product is their passion. BoonDocker designs and manufactures its products to fit the specific needs of the customer. Other than the Garrett GT 2860 turbo and a couple of other parts, everything is designed and made in Idaho Falls, ID.
6) Commitment.
