6.0 turbo on a 7.3??
 
Hey im just wondering if its possible to fit a 6.0's turbo onto a 7.3, im pretty sure it isnt possible but a friend of mine wants to do this so im wondering if it can be done???

I think 6.0 is VVT. anything's possible, but its nothing near bolt on.

i dont know. i have never herd of anyone doing it thats why im wondering about it you know

There was a aftermarket company doing it a while back, I read about it I diesel power mag, they did it on two trucks one was around a 97 year and the other was a 99 or newer. It didn't say really how to do it but it did say they were useing some sort of stand alone computer to control the vains.

That would be sick:rocking:.
What is your freinds truck?

REDRIDE13 06-24-2009 07:28 PM

the problem would be the programming. bc it is a vvt

why not just upgrade the turbo? you'll probably pay less for a turbo kit than you will for the 6.0 turbo then the standalone computer control system. I know alot of guys use 6.0 intercoolers on 7.3's but not turbos

yeah it would probubly be cheaper to just upgrade but i think its a pretty sick idea myself and if he can get it to work i would think about doing it myself. and my freinds truck is the same as mine. 96 powerstroke.

its just i have no idea how you would hook all that stuff up like the wires and comp. im no good with wires and crap:humm: ,but the turbo i could take care of for him.

this is becoming a thing that i want to do as well so if anyone has any ideas on how to do so i would greatly appreciate it:c:

cool
Wut are his other mods to back the turbo up cuz wouldyou need to do all different stuff with a different turbo.?

Its not a huge chalange to install the turbo, but take a look at the issues that the 6.0VGT has before you go and swap one in... You would be money ahead and time, hell even HP with a drop in GTP-38R...

Or better yet a Modded H2e...:rocking:
