The Kenworth W990 is available with different engine configurations depending on model year and spec, so it's important to verify your engine make and model (such as PACCAR MX-13 or Cummins X15) before ordering.

Are these parts OEM, aftermarket, or a mix of both?

We carry a combination of OEM and quality aftermarket engine and performance parts for the Kenworth W990. Each product listing specifies the brand and whether it's an OEM Kenworth component or an aftermarket alternative, so you can choose based on your budget and preference.

Will installing a performance part affect my truck's emissions compliance or warranty?

Some performance-related components can impact emissions compliance or your factory warranty, particularly anything that alters engine tuning, exhaust flow, or emissions system function. Review the product details for any compliance notes, and if you have concerns about warranty coverage or DOT/EPA regulations, we recommend checking with your dealer or a qualified diesel technician before installation.

Do I need professional installation for these parts, or can I install them myself?

This depends on the specific part. Some components, like filters, sensors, or small hardware, are straightforward for an experienced DIYer to install. Others, such as turbo components or major engine parts, typically require a professional technician with the right tools and diagnostic equipment. If a listing doesn't specify installation difficulty and you're unsure, feel free to reach out to our team for guidance.
