That one turned out nice. Ran pretty damn good. Think we have it away in July or September or something. I will say, our turbos blow the 38r out of the water. At one point I swapped about 15 turbos on tha truck on the dyno as comparisons.

I definitely believe you, but I'm at 100k/13 years on this 38r and it's been absolutely trouble free. I know where I'm going though when I do

do you have a set of up pipes to recommend?

My DI stainless pipes, which I've had since I changed turbo finally cracked and I'm scared I won't find a welder.

We sell a set of bellowed ones. Haven’t had many issues with them. You are a late 99, right? Our early 99 ones don’t fit the greatest, we may have fixed tha though. The late 99 ones fit nice and I personally haven’t had a set have issues. I do know we’ve had some customers have issues, but considering we sell probably 300 sets a month, we’re at less than 1% warranty rate from what I remember.

One of these years i will swap over to a kc turbo. But for now the Ole 38r just gets it done. She's old and has a few miles on her but boy does she sound cool. Lol

It’s funny, with the 7.3 it’s the opposite of our 6.0 turbos. With our 6.0s we have a very small amount of customers that hate the whistle, whereas with the 7.3s there’s a very small amount who like the noises of the 38r. We do occasionally have people irritated that our turbos aren’t noisy enough.

I had a 38R that I LOVED! Lots of boost, nice whistle, truck ran fantastic. Until it started dumping oil down the exhaust. The warranty replacement isn't any better than the stock turbo...
