7.3 idi n/a to turbo charge help/pointers anyone?
i have a 1991 f250 with a 7.3 idi n/a
i have a factory ford idi turbo i pulled crossover pipe and down pipes off another idi turbo im trying to convert my truck into a turbo now. anyone have any pointers or tips? and i need an airbox assembly for the turbo.. any help would be appreciated!! |
from what ive read it will work,
my main concern is the pyrometer and what it will be putting out temp wise, im going to turn my pump up 3 flats, does this sound safe? |
I would go a flat at a time and watch your pyrometer, the turbo will work did it to my dads 92,change the down pipe to 3 inch throw the squished pipe away. I used some aluminum tubing on it. If you know a good muffler shop they can custom build you one.

you should make you a cold air intake instead of the factory airbox,and 2 flats would be about right from n/a to turbo for the stock setting.

2 is what mine took to come out right. And I built my own cold air I think I still have the factory box if you still want to go that route ill look for it and send it to you
A little off topic but has anyone mounted turbos under the cab im in the middle of a twin turbo setup but im having a problem getting the oil back into the pan. Im running a small garret turbo off an audi and a bigger turbo off a cat 3406 its all installed and works great and there is almost no lag but the oil is pushing through the seals in the turbos ---AutoMerged DoublePost--- And to much fuel is fine to little fuel is bad a good way to set your pump is turn it up and back it of till it just barely smokes my egts ran between 850 and 1400 if I pushed her hard on the stock set up |
