different turbos?

2003 had it's own turbo
2004 had it's own turbo
2005+ had their own turbo.
The only thing that changed was the vane count on the exhaust side.
2003 was a 10 vane design and had a LOT of whistle. This is a popular "upgrade" for a lot of 04-07 owners. Ford changed it because of customers complaining about too much whistle. These customers were clearly not anyone on this site... However we represent a small portion of those guys buying new diesels. It's possible your 06 has this 03 turbo on it, or it may have the cat/muffler missing? Can't really say without having the truck in front of me.
I believe the 04 turbo went to like a 13 vane setup and the 05+ went to 15 maybe? Don't quote me on those, I know the 03 had 10 vanes for a fact though.
