that will not work, completely different systems. If it actually worked like that why doesn't every body just take used turbos off of diesels?

Re: computer tunning
 

i have seen dodge turbos used and im pretty sure i can make this one work and because its alot of work and complicated but if you have access to a father whom works for ford and is a master technician then you know how to do it

This guy has no clue what he's talking about.


Op, it's a direct bolt in. You just need to upgrade your intake and exhaust gaskets. May need a bigger alternatorand battery too since the 6.0 turbos run on electricity.

Well there are three things in the automotive world cheap fast and reliable pick any two you want but chose wisely ;)

Re: computer tunning
 

ill make it work if i dont use the 6.0 ill go with a dodge turbo. i just need to know what all i need to make it all work on the computer end

just because he's a "master tech" doesn't mean he knows how to custom fab a powerstroke turbo to a damn 2.3L. Do your research cause clearly you haven't

Re: computer tunning
 

and clearly you dont understand engines. and lets just say my father also work on circle cars and has been doing this since he was 13
i do my research before doing anything and i may be young but ik engines very well my self.

i was basicaly born under a car i remenber doing a whole rearend swap with my father when i was only 2 on his 72 z28.

Dude, stop. I can't take much more laughing.

let's also just say you didn't, do you even realize how much boost a stock 6.0 turbo makes? I don't even think it's possible to make that little engine withstand it even if every thing was forged and at that you'd be in the build so deep you could have just bought a powerstroke
