Small change required.

Fairly easy installation. The only issue I had was that the bolts had to be ground to fit as the new turbo isn't assembled like the original. Driven 500 km so far with no problems. Raises up to 18 lbs and holds up well. I updated the EBPV to 33lbs, that seems to have helped. Be sure to change the oil before starting the truck with the new turbo. I also recommend replacing the bearing seals. I would recommend someone to buy it now. I will update the review if I encounter any issues.

Pros
  • Turbocharger
Cons
  • Very expensive

The casting's hole pattern is misaligned by more than 3/16 inch, resulting in misalignment during installation. That means the exhaust flanges don't line up, and neither do the oil lines. The casting is a quality job, they seem to be well cast. Lack of attention to detail in assembly due to the use of incorrect top hot screws and errors in machine operation must be rectified by the…
