7.3 idi turbo conversion
I recently purchased a 1993 f-250 7.3l idi. I turned my injection pump up a half turn and am looking into buying a pyrometer so I can go farther. But my main question is, does anyone know if I could take a turbo off of a powerstroke and install it on my 7.3? If anyone knows anything please comment back. Thank you.

yeah as soon as i let off it starts back with the jet sound. i say jet because i have a straight pipe on it. but yeah i get in the pedal it stops. let off a little it starts back. but if it s normal i won t worry about it. my 99 just seems like it does it worse then the 01
Yours is the ebpv. Thats all good. To the op I say leaking up pipes myself. If you know what the ebpv sounds like then you can rule that out and go for up pipe leak
