hey guys I was wondering if putting a common rail turbo on my truck would be a good idea? I've searched around on here and cant find a solid answer, all the threads end up with a couple guys having a pissing match with no real answer.

 

i think that the exhaust housings are smaller

 

from what i can gather they're a pretty popular upgrade, the exhaust housing is smaller, but it spools faster and is capable of handling higher temps and higher boost pressures, whether they're a more reliable turbo or not, i don't know

 

guy on dof done it to his 99. here is an article about it, might read it and see what ya think

3rd gen HE351cw retro fit into a 2nd gen.

 

I have buddy that is all about the he351 I know they are an undivided exhaust housing instead of the divided ones like our trucks come stock with.

 

i think the exhaust flanges are dif so u will need to rig something up

i think its the turbo off the 6.7 that wont fit the t3 flanges, my bad
