Default 6.0 turbo

I've heard that I can make this work in my 2000 7.3 is it true I can get one for $50 so that's why I'm thinking about it. I've heard there are little gain.

If you look at the Maps of a stock 7.3 and a 6.0 turbo, youre not going to like the results. Hell, theyre undersize for running 6L let alone 20% more displacement. Now getting a VGT off a newer 8.3L cummins or a John Deere... thats been on my too do list!
