When you switched to the van turbo you probably changed the size of the exhaust turbine housing, on vans they’re generally a 1.15A/R that is going to absolutely kill spool up. Your stock superduty 7.3 turbine housing is generally .84A/R sometimes 1.00A/R
woulda been a good time to do bellowed up pipes if you dont already have them
The turbo rotating assembly must be balanced.
never again what?
You need to balance the whole thing once you installed the Compressor wheel on the turbo and then put the Compressor housing on with new gasket/liquidgasket and instal the turbo on the car. Also if you don't tune it afterwards you won't really gain anything from it other than faster spool up.
1:30 8mm 12 point isn’t odd at all
Seemed really slow. Did the wheel kill power? Don't trust what the eBay ad says. That turbo must be rebalanced as a unit.
I just did my buddies 7.3 the other day. Riffraff diesel though. Great quality. I love riffraffs products. But .. What a pain. Miss my 7-3 but so glad I got my cummins. So easy to work on
DanielPats1228, I never bought a 7.3 to work on, I'm sorry that's why you bought a cummins.
Idk why people say it's too hard to work on a 7.3 It's not that bad a cummins is only easy because it's a 1 wire setup and it's not a v8
How's the riff raff working for ya?
DIEhardHD Cummins are easier because its a straight 6 vs a v8 . That and some older diesel have complicated unneeded injection systems. The cummins has everything just right there . One exhaust manifold and everything in the middle. Very simple and when its time to mod them like compounds there is allot of room for everything. I own 2 cummins a 12v and a 24v. I love turbo V8s though. I currently have a forged turbocharged Gen1 SBC w/ gen3 ecm and electronics.
Tighten finger tight then one quarter turn.
Also a remap. Unless engine can be adjusted manually.
You buy duarability and strength with stock billet compressor wheels. For extra performance I would recommend an extended tip design billet wheel. If more performance is is the goal, no machining needed, unless you increase O.D.. also . Nice Rig , love my 5.9.
How much louder did it whistle also is all you had to do was swap the wheel
Shoulda just sent the stock turbo in and had it upgraded to a D66. Less hassle and drops in, depending on your pedestal
subbed, keep up these videos please im getting a 99 7.3 as my first truck im so damn excited
KingPohHere cool 7.3s are good trucks just not rocket ships
KingPohHere they may not go fast but we could pull down a house if we wanted to lolol hhahahahaba
KingPohHere i have a 93 F250 7.3 dually, they're good trucks but easy on the gas bc they're not built for speed man, but damn good trucks 💪
Jacob Fincher, 93 7.3 isn't a powerstroke totally different engine.
Shaun Bennett i didn't get it bro but mine isn't a power stroke anymore bc I did a Cummins trade with a friend of mi e
Shit that well are good for That anti surge
How much was the wheel, can you provide a link?
Brandon Hoover do not.
Or at the very least, if you do, for the love of GOD balance it or you're gonna have a very bad time, dude.
Monster compresser wheel is like 299 lol
Dont you have to balance it or no?
Do you have the link to the person you bought it off of on eBay?
Motor Nubs
Did you tq the wheel , or tighten it till it bottoms out ?
dont have to it tightens it self to the correct spec when you first go WOT
Did swapping the wheel and turbo make it faster or did it feel the same.
feels a little faster on spool up and seems to hold power up top unlike the stock turbo falling off power wise im going to do a better video. but first impression if you can get a van turbo cheap its worth it btw i have $400 in the turbo and the billet wheel total van turbos seem to sell cheap on ebay
Motor Nubs Thanks for responding when the turbo on my 7.3 starts going out I will do that
no prob bro.. yea only reason i changed out mine was it started like chirping and surging under load and the new one dose not at all =]
Swap a compressor wheel without balancing it's a big mistake mate...a rebuild could be even better too
Fabio Gs it balances itself bud there is no need at all to balance the wheel itself
What size lift / wheel/ tire setup looks sweet
Balance that shit after installing the billet wheel
Great video! I'm curious, why as to never again?
Mr Ahhsum just was a pain to change was arm deep laying on the motor for way to long lol
Motor Nubs Roger that!
First turbo? You can have the in and out in a hour . I first one was rough lol
@@MotorNubs If you think thats bad, try doing the pedestal O rings, glow plugs, oil galley plugs, oil cooler seals, and thermostat upgrade. then also cleaning half a concrete plant worth of set solid rocks and dirt out of the valley, and off the rocker cover bolts to get it all apart in one session of repairs. I just did mine and hated every minute of about 12 hours by the time i was done. Luckily the only thing that dripped after was the thermostat housing. I didn't know the water pump flange was slightly warped and it showed with the update housing.I Should of just siliconed it the first time to be sure. I guess it could be worse my buddy had a newer truck in with a plugged oil cooler, the cab was off to do it L.O.L.
@@super6954 Or 6.4 high pressure pump...with the cab on. It can be done.
How many miles on that wheel so far?
10k miles on the wheel no issues so far
So what's the reason never again? It didn't live up to your expectations... it broke... what? You're supposed to be able to run the billet wheel a lot harder than a cast.
Sooo was it good or bad
Click bait
Waisted money a billet wheel will only give a few hp and torque maybe like 15 to 25 . Not worth it .
Buy a 62 through 66 mm and have some fun . To hell with a wheel . That’s like buy a box rubbers and putting it on after you fuck her lol pointless .
Great vid enjoy your diesel brother as we all love ours .
Ok, for everyone pretending to speak turbo: all garrett based parts are individually balanced. That's how you can swap wheels. Everything is balanced independently, and thus, maintains balance when assembled. It's like they thought ahead... like engineers making things that spin 100000rpms.
Please, think me a liar, but actually prove it to yourself. A fool will just tell themselves you have to balance it bolted togeder like a smallblocksheberlay! Them new fangled turbos are just like my smallblocksheberlay!!
...no they are not...
I’m quite certain the wheel itself was not from Garrett..
I changed my stock wheel 2 wicked wheel, and never removed turbo from the truck. Just remove compressor housing, spin old wheel off with impact. Install new wheel with impact on low. Reinstall housing etc... Ready for surge free towing.
no wheel is just a drop in no matter what the manufacture says. you need to balance the whole turbo as an assembly with the new wheel not rely on the fact that yes the billet wheel has been balanced. but thats only self balanced. not balanced with the shaft and turbine wheel
proper thing to do would be assemble with the billet wheel and have whole core re balanced
They typically work fine on the GTP38 and even the 38R. Agree 100% though. I want my shit balanced.
You’re a idiot bro, they come pre balanced and it only requires hand tight. You’re thinking to much, it’s a easy upgrade. Don’t listen to this snowman!
The professional turbo rebuilding industry does vsr balancing on the complete rotating assembly. I'd suggest getting a chra or complete turbo. Or send yours for vsr balancing for longevity.
Keep in mind many parts are made in China, which uses prisoner forced labor. Of which those prisoners have no rights to their own organs. I don't think they give a crap if your turbo billet is really balanced.
i am chinese and to you me say shut the fuck up y'all queda pharisee!
What wheel did you get from ebay?
How much was the wheel
Just got a ebay turbo compressor wheel for my 7.3. How is yours holding up?
its doing great have been daily driving the truck with no issues have about 4k miles on it so far
Awsome i will be installing mine soon. Thanks for the replay looking forward to some more boost and didnt want to break the bank doing it.
Joe T how are they doing?
What suspension is on the truck? Lift/ leveling kit and size? Thanks
hi
hello
100% i can hear that👍
fail
Shulda gota duramax
Lol not in anyway would that be a better choice over this motor
Isuzu diesel?😏
Duramax engines are a nightmare to work on and terribly designed. They leak coolant like crazy and injectors are a small fortune
First (:
Evan's King you got a new sub
T1GR3S13 thanks man! Means a lot to me. Every sub is important!
