If you can keep it running.

 

Oh believe me a powerstroke keeps itself running. It doesn't need constant maintenance like cummins.

 

a powerstoke not need maintance???? haha

hey does anyone know what the compressor wheel size is on these turbos? i heard they were a 62mm with extented tip, i just saw a write up were a guy put on his vp truck and it looks sweet along with the exhaust brake +++ the wheels are turning in my head now

 

Callin BS on that one!!!!!!! And I've had both the 7.3 and the 6.0
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

 

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

 

My PSD was a tank, wouldn't stop for anything. Never had ONE problem with it. My 12v had problem after problem with it. But both the 7.3 and the 12v truly are tanks. I love them both.

 

The price i quoted you was for a garret stock replacement from industrial injections

 

VGT is very doable. It just comes down to how you want to control the actuator, and there are several ways to go about that. You'll just have to balance cost and how much time you're willing to put in to make it work correctly.
