Just Curious

[fishsniper]

Hey guys, I don't have a Cummins yet, but I'm shooting for one for next summer. As a kid, I always liked the Powerstrokes because I was strictly a Ford guy...now that I'm a little older, I love the Cummins, but still like the P-strokes. I was just curious if it was possible to put the turbo from one of the 7.3s on a Cummins (more than likely 12V) and if it would work properly? Those turbos whistle like crazy, and I love it!

Sorry if this is in the wrong section or if it's just a stupid thought and would never work.

Thanks in advance!

You can remove the silencer ring from the stock hx-35 turbo and do the air intake mod. You will have lots of whistle.

Modify Stock Airbox???

I knew about removing the silencer ring, but didn't know about that. When I get one, I'll try that for sure. Thanks for the link!

The 6.0ls do whistle like crazy but you gotta trade a whole lot of reliability to get it....

^^ I know that for sure...if (and I stress IF) I were to get a p-stroke, it'd be a 7.3 and nothing else. But, I am going to get a good ol' Cummins. My buddy has a 6.0 and I'm trying to get him to yank the silencer ring and straight pipe it, and so far, he hasn't had any problems with it...

6.0ls are great motors once you fix the few problems they have. Build great power too

I still would get a 7.3 in a powerstroke.

7.3's are heavy, slow, bad on fuel and run hot.

Plus the whole hpop and injector are setup absolutely terrible

Hence why I have decided on the Mighty Cummins!

Strictly for research purposes...not for the pure awesomeness of these I6's...all business here!
