I just finished installing mine. So far I love it. There *is* a TOUCH more "lag" but it's hardly noticable. I can't wait to turn up the boost up with it. It'll lower drive pressures quite a bit
Zach Berninger I did ! It's basically ready for bigger injectors now. It's an auto so spool isn't an issue. Boost is more linear now, cruising boost is only 6 psi now. The exhaust note is totally changed. I love hearing the turbine sound. Even at idle! I have the $280 4" exhaust kit from summit WITH a muffler. The turbine mod cost me $260 which included the new turbo studs
thank you for the info. it is nice to hear from someone that has an 03-04 truck and stock injectors. did you add the 76x67 to your he341 or did you install an he351? what is your max boost psi? did the larger wheel help or hurt your mpg's? i have stock fueling, but run a smarty s06 and worry about having enough fuel to turn that big wheel. With the he341 on flat ground, i run 4psi @ 475* doing 65mpg at 1900 rpms. any insights you can give are greatly appreciated.
Zach Berninger I installed a 351 and just capped off the wastegate hose ha ...but apparently the wastegate actuator needs adjusted because my bullydog still reads 28 psi but I haven't felt too compelled to adjust it yet. I'd like to see 35, but I think I need a real boost gauge and not rely totally on the BD. It could be a lot higher and I wouldn't know
Zach Berninger I don't have an egt gauge but so far I've ran 1 full tank through it and I've went down 3mpg ...but because the turbo sounds so good damn cool now I've been pretty foot heavy lmao. I've got a single cab long bed 2wd btw if it makes a difference
@@DanielPats1228 I know that's what it was for initially. But it is part of their upgrade for the he351ve which also has the larger compressor wheel on it. I just didn't want to pay for the extra Machining of the compressor housing, cover plate new compressor wheel.
Whats the 3yr review? Is it still functioning and performing? I'm going to be ordering a modified he351 vgt for my 6.7 and I want to make sure they are holding up.
8520653 you have to call turbo lab or email them. Yes the bearing hosing will have to be machined for whichever compressor wheel you choose. Also the compressor cover has to be machined as well
If it was a HP or torque gain I wouldn’t say I noticed it. I was just hoping for lower egts which I believe it has helped with. Cruising 73 MPH , 43° outside , 2200-2300 RPM , 6-18 PSI boost (6 on flat ground & 18 on the hills ) I was seeing 615-700° EGTs. It did help in that area, I think it’s helped with MPGs a bit too.
How do you like it, pro and cons before and after 67mm turbine. I have a s363, I’ve had it for a 3 years. I don’t like it. I want to go back to stock spool, want to know how this mod on the stock frame is working. I will go compounds with a 469sxe. Really want to know if the stock charger modded would be best performance.
Fernando Mata I now have a 62-65 tater built turbo. When I did have that setup my egts were always 650 or 600 on freeway. 70 mph. 35” tires. 6 speed around 2100 RPM. I did the mod myself when I did do it. If you’re mechanically inclined you can do it
WINKLE _ at startup. And idle. And driving. The 62/65 tater built was louder externally at the exhaust pipe. In the cab it whistled some more but not a whole bunch. I was going for tailpipe whistle

Sounds great
Corey Adams thank you. That turbo no longer on my rig
I just bought this for my 03, I'm excited to get it done!
did you add this to your '03? how do you like it? do you have any added fuel / larger injectors?

Truck sounds great! I have the 67mm with stock wheel but no whistle. Mine is an 08 that has not been deleted
Mine was a 5.9. Does your 6.7 have a 3rd gen turbo?
@@DanielPats1228 yes, it's VGT
@@frnkjones40 is it a Aftermarket charger? As far as I know the 67 mm housing and wheel that turbo lab sells is only for a fixed geometry turbo

@@DanielPats1228 the turbo is OEM. Turbolab machined my turbine housing and sold me the turbine wheel
Whats the 3yr review? Is it still functioning and performing? I'm going to be ordering a modified he351 vgt for my 6.7 and I want to make sure they are holding up.
This was a non VGT. I actually sold the truck. But I can tell you I had 0 issues with that setup
For the compressor housing n wheel do you need a different bearing housing or is it bolt on like the turbine housing
8520653 you have to call turbo lab or email them. Yes the bearing hosing will have to be machined for whichever compressor wheel you choose. Also the compressor cover has to be machined as well
And this is just turbo lab 76mm exhaust housing and turbine wheel? Stock compressor ?
Yes. The kit they sell, exhaust turbine and housing. Stock compressor
What exhaust manifold are you running?
HeavyChevy16 it says DPS on it. It’s a 3 piece I believe. I don’t know for sure because it was on there when I bought it
Thanks for the info man much appreciated. Truck sounds great
HeavyChevy16 no problem. The manifold is marked D.P.S. And underneath that there’s a bIg X. not sure which model it is
Do you have any videos of your tater turbo?
I sold the truck. I do not
So by adding that upgraded housing from Turbo lab did you notice any better or any more horsepower or Torque and any lower egts
If it was a HP or torque gain I wouldn’t say I noticed it. I was just hoping for lower egts which I believe it has helped with.

@@DanielPats1228 why did you go smaller?
WINKLE _ I just wanted more whistle to be honest
@@DanielPats1228 the smaller turbo was louder?
WINKLE _ at startup. And idle. And driving. The 62/65 tater built was louder externally at the exhaust pipe. In the cab it whistled some more but not a whole bunch. I was going for tailpipe whistle
