$1500ish for a 467.7(468). Wish i could afford to throw one on my truck, seems to be the perfect turbo for a 7.3.

If you decide to get rid of the S478, let me know as I have some interest in it.
I built my kit... I have a complete mock up motor/trans set up...
Not hard at all.
If I had the time, parts and such sitting there it could be done in a weekend of dicking around.
Been installed for 160-180k now without issue.

Hmm... well Damn. Guess I shouldn't have got the turbo... only problem is I don't have $1500 laying around lol. If I chose to their the small t4 housing on, would it still be miserable to drive??

I roll at 6700lbs with me in it. On a 75. I cruise the hwy at 75mph at 0-1psi of boost.
You're in a crew long. You can forget hills. Forget towing any thing big. With a large turbo. You're either cruising at 70mph with no boost or flying. It's like a light switch. On or off.

A 478 is way to small for an atmo in a compound setup anyway

Damn it... Hmm... my friend said it might work. He works for BT diesel. But again, he is a Duramax guy. You should see the turbo set up they just built at his shop. Quads on a cummins... crazy lookin...
Do you guys sell your oil return separate? I made my own, but I'm not proud of it, and its not very clean...

Mind throwing some pics up of the porting inside the flange. I'm interested in the quality and workman ship of your kit

Correction on price quote from above...
kit w/ turbo is 4500
with out is 3000.
I don't know what the hell I was thinking earlier.
Sorry for the stupidity on my part

Soo... what about like an hx55 for those 300/200s? I live in a highly populated cummins area. Turbos like that are hard to come by
