New GTP38 Turbo Charger for Ford 7.3L F Series F250 F350 Late 1999-2003 Powerstroke Excursion Diesel Super Duty Upgrade Turbocharger 1831383C92

Fairly straightforward installation. Only issue I had was the bolts needed to be ground down to fit since the new turbo is not assembled like the original. Have 500 miles on it now with no issues so far. Boosts up to 18 pounds and hold well. I did upgrade the EBPV with a 33pound so that did seem to help. Make sure you change your oil before you start up the truck with the new turbo. I recommend replacing the pedestal seals also. I would recommend someone to buy it as of now. Will update review if I have issues.

Part was supposed to fit my international bus but didn't. Returned the product but was not given a full refund.

The media could not be loaded.  Installed this on my 7.3l drove down the road for 30 mins making sure everything was good and what do you know the turbo housings start splitting apart in the middle damaging my turbine wheel and inside of housing. If you plan on installing and buying this I recommend taking it apart and putting thread lock on and re-torquing the bolts. it will save you so you the headache of having to pull it back out, or losing the bolts as they vibrate out. other than the manufacturer not torquing and putting thread lock on any of the bolts it seems to be a decently built turbo.

So far so good, went in great, but the motor is out of the truck so, cant really say on how difficult it is in truck

Put it on a freshly built 7.3 in a 2001 F350. Put about 3000 miles 0n it and left me stranded on the interstate, and cost me a hefty $1000 Tow Bill. The Turbo came apart looks like the Bolts backed out of it. I hope that they can help me out with some of the cost.

It was vary goof

Its very good works perfect

The media could not be loaded.  PURE JUNK. See photos, wrong bolts used on hot end, blocks the pedestal mounting bolt holes. Casting drill pattern is off by over 3/16 th of an inch causing misalignment during install. This means the exhaust flanges don't line up and neither do the oil tubes. The casting are quality work, they appear to be cast well. The lack of attention to detail in assembly by using the wrong upper hot end bolts, and the machine work errors need to be addressed by the manufacturer.TuningsWorld has reached out to make a full refund. Hopefully they will implement a few more manufacturing checks to prevent these issues in the future.

NOT THE SAME AS MY STOCK TURBO.THE AIR INTAKE SIDE HAS A SMALLER IMPELLER IN DIAMETER OVER STOCK SO IF INSTALLED THERE IS A LOSS OF POWER, BUT FOR WHAT IT IS IT WORKS JUST FINE. HOWEVER PRIOR TO INSTALL CHECK THE BOLTS THAT HOLDS THE CAST ALUMINUM TO THE CAST STEEL. I AT A LATER DATE NEEDED TO RE AND RE TURBO SO I COULD RE-INSTALL THE BOLTS WITH RED LOCK TITE AS MINE AFTER ABOUT 50,000 KM'S RATTLED THE BOLTS LOOSE THAT THEY FELL OUT AND MY TWO HALF'S ON THE TRUCK STARTED TO SEPARATE WITH A NOTICABLE LOUDNESS AND LOSS OF POWER. IF YOU PURCHASE A 1/4 INCH DR 12 PT SOCKET YOU CAN RE-INSTALL THE BOLTS WITH OUT PULLING THE TURBO APART. WHEN I HAVE DOWN TIME MY PLAN IS TO BUY A WICKED WHEEL AND TAKE THE SPOOL SIDE OF MY OLD TURBO AND MATE IT TO THE NEW TURBO, SO THE COMPRESSOR SIDE WILL BE IN IT'S STOCK FORM AND I'LL REGAIN THE POWER LOSS THAT I HAVE WITH THE SMALLER COMPRESSOR WHEEL. THE TURBO REPLACEMENT I GOT, I BELIEVE WAS FOR THE YEAR 1999 AS THE IMPELLER FOR THAT YEAR TURBO IS ABOUT 1/2 INCH SMALLER IN DIAMETER. IT WORKS FINE BUT THE STOCK HORSE POWER IS ABOUT 235 AS THE REPLACEMENT UNIT IS 185 AS POSTED IN THE AD, AND I THOUGHT IT WAS A MISS PRINT, HOWEVER IT WAS SPOT ON AND I WAS WRONG
