Are you looking for an upgrade or just trying to get a cheaper oem replacement?

Um,well a better Turbo will help, and it helps in more ways than one, more boost/cfm equals more power, and more cfm equals lower egt's so its a win win, oh and most of the upgrades are cheaper than OEM so win,win,win.

So far having a rough time finding a different Turbo to fit this without a bunch of fab work to the intake side to hook it up and that one was only $250 cheaper than a brand-new one figure ill eat that up in fab work so more calls to make tomorrow just have a hard time paying $1700 for a Turbo when i can get a monster Turbo for a Detroit for $900 otd. I do love my purebred but but i might have to get the torches and welder out and steal my bosses 850+ horse Detroit. :(

Most diesel shops can get you a replacement turbo thats a little bigger that will bolt right in at the most just changing some intake elbows, I put an upgrade on a 01 CH with a 460 and it went right on and was a wastegated turbo from a place in canada it was $900 if I remember right and made her run better and got the egt's down almost 300 degrees on long hills.
