03 turbo swap

[tails101]

Hi i was just wondering what the benefits are of putting an 03 turbo on our trucks. I have an 05 6.0 and was just wondering

really is just the sound i installed mine monday and i love it cant tell any diffrence but the sound is awsome

[powerhoghp]

Purely the more profound whistle from having fewer vanes.

So no power gain just the loud whistle is all you get

[kingranch250]

yeah about it

[powerhoghp]

The only way it could give you a performance gain is if it had less miles than your turbo. And even that is just the difference in wear on the compressor wheel.

Isn't that a NON-VGT turbo? I personally would keep VGT in the truck, but install the upgraded garrett unit.

what kind of power can the upgraded garret unit put out
