2003-2007 Powerstroke Non-VGT Replacement Turbocharger (C60RT62STD)

Description

Fits

While the OEM turbo within the 6.0L isn't inherently bad, it still has common issues like corrosion and the variable vane mechanism (VNT) needing replacement. Smeding understands this and the freedom to choose what suits your trucks and driving application. Fully compatible with any aftermarket cold air intake system, downpipe, or hot-side intercooler pipe and has no turbine vanes, no unison ring, and no VGT solenoid to fail. 

For those with a mild build with the majority of components still being stock, the cast wheel turbo is an ideal choice that supports up to 350- 450HP. If you've got a more aggressive setup and tune the Billet 63mm supports up to 400- 500HP. Want a little bit more? The 64.5mm Billet wheel steps it up to 550HP without compromising driveability and hauling mannerisms. Lastly, for those who demand the best, the 63mm Billet SXE-R is lightweight and quick spooling, making it perfect for any driving application, especially competition.

Cast vs. Billet vs SXE-R:

• The cast aluminum compressor wheel in this kit has been around for many years and is a more budget-friendly option
• CNC-machined Billet compressor wheel is much more advanced, utilizing stronger material with a more aggressive design, giving you faster spool-up and more power
• SXE-R wheel is the top-tier compressor option, lightweight and geared toward competition, Its quick-spooling characteristics would make it a sound choice for towing, daily driving, or playing at the drag strip
