The only way a damn powerstroke keeps itself runnin is stock.
and even that is sketchy on a 6.0.
my 7.3 was always needing things fixed, and all I was runnin was a tune.

check out youtube there's plenty on videos on trucks running vgts on 12 valves and vp trucks. I think Fleece performance makes a vgt controller box so you can mount vgt turbos on about any damn truck out there.

You can by a brand new Industrial Injection 6.4L twin setup for $2400 brand new and like $1800 for one from swamps. And you can buy a new reman 6.7L cummins vgt turbo for $950 and a stage 1 hyrbid vgt for $1400 that is a 64mm compressor wheel instead of like a 57 or a 60mm of the stock turbo. And the turbo from your volkwagen is expensive cuz its a volkswagen. I can get that turbo for 950.00

Sorry buddy but your on crack. A 200k mile garett vnt15 (oem) for my 1.9 liter volkswagen costs 5-600$ used and around 12-1500 new.

Oh buy one and you will become a believer brother. Ford makes the chariots that God himself rides in.
The 6.0 is a different story. I've never had a 6.0, but if you do the head studs and egr-delete they are great trucks. The 7.3 is a complete animal and is damn near bulletproof.
Those are some pricey turbos. They are absolutely worth it; vgt turbos are the coolest damn turbos, and give you AMAZING performance, but they aren't a dime-a-dozen turbo either like an hx35.
You can get a brand new vnt15 for 950$?

i had a powerjoke only last 120k before 6 bad injectors, 5 bad cylinders, leaking oil like a mother, turbo impeler wasted and tranny on its way out. both my 12valve are more abused than that ford and have 260k and 155k on them with no motor problems
also i worked at a diesel shop and on many 7.3s and 6.0s so im no stranger to them, 6.0s have alot more problems that just egr and heads
