The intake or heads off a power stroke wont work on you 7.3 as far as I know. The turbo would fit if you make it but my guess would be it will make to much psi. You could turn that down but I don't know how that would work.

I am going to guess that it would be somewhere around 10-14psi but then I don't know how well the turbo would work. I would just hang around for a while and there are a few guys on hear that know these engines really well and they can help you with this.

u can install the psd turbo, but it will be an all custom job. nothing will bolt on.

10-12 psi is max without headstucs

best bet and easiest would be to find a turbo made for the idi. banks, ats, and hypermax all made/make them.
