Kc300x turbo install on my 7.3L powerstroke!!

- Original turbo surprisingly went out at only 107k miles on my 2000 7.3. Ordered my replacement from KC turbos and am amazed at the power increase, less smoke, more whistle, and no more compressor surge!
Kc300x stage 1 63/68 7x7 compressor wheel
Sweet truck! It also took me like 3 hours to change my turbo the first time. I can do it in like an hour now
Another great video. Getting ready to do a KC turbo swap myself. Which stage turbo did you get? Which suspension lift do you have? Thx
@@mtbrdave4086 I have a stage 1 turbo and a 2” leveling kit, with 35x12.50 tires and 2” wheel spacers
Finished watching this video then bought a 300x for my 2001 7.3 I’m also having that blue smoke after putting a used turbo on the truck about 8 months ago! Was back and forth on a spoologic turbo or kc stage 1
@@catchnstew5720 awesome! I wouldnt buy a “spoologic” anything sounds like cheap Chinese junk
it took me an hour to pull my turbo and install the new one. and then 3 days to get the rear clamp on lol
@@HondaRider190 lol that is extremely relatable haha, up pipe clamp is worst part of the entire job
@@nick7.3Is a DP tuner good for 99 7.3 ?
@@Nubako463 probably not, get a php hydra chip its the best by a mile
@@nick7.3thanks
@@nick7.3Is S&b Cold air intake good for stock 7.3 turbo ?
Do an oil catch can for the ccv mod instead of it dripping a little from the hose end. You can then connect the outlet from the catch can back to the intake boot where the ccv originally connects. No oil would go through
I had mines connected the same way as yours but I couldn’t stand the smell and did a catch can
@@LexiDiesels yes sir the smell is annoying af might do that or catch can and still vent under cab idk if catch can filters the smoke
Just got a 2001 f250 7.3 and the nipple for the vacuum line to the wastegate broke off so it’s not active and I took that foil stuff off the hot side intercooler pipe so the factory turbo wines pretty good. If something goes wrong I’ll prolly rebuild the turbo with new orings and a s300 wheel.
@@jontroyer7975 I thought of doing that but didnt want to do the work of rebuilding figured its faster to buy bolt in ready unit
@@nick7.3 kc turbos aren’t bad because they’re way more budget friendly my perfect setup with my 7.3 zf6 would definitely be a t4 kit s369 with some big ish injectors but that’s not much of budget friendly.
@@jontroyer7975 yea like 3-3x the cost of this setup, would be sick tho
Great job
@@Caleb-12-05 thank you 🤝
@@nick7.3Do you know any tunes that make a 7.3 whistle loader like a 6.0 jet sound ?
@@Nubako463 cant be done, 6.0s have vgt turbos that gives it the whistle, a 7.3 will never whistle like that
@@nick7.3thanks
@@nick7.3Do you know any tunes that make a 7.3 louder ?
nice truck😎
was that the stage 1 turbo. Did it make a noticeable difference
@@joshua12345j yes its a stage 1 and honestly pretty big difference, has no more compressor surge, quite a bit more power, lot less smokey than stock turbo as well. It sounds rowdy too when your at 2200-2500 rpm it screams, good whistle too getting up to speed
Nice
Nice truck man, I am thinking about going with the stage 1 for my 7.3 zf6 as well it has a bd turbo in it now and I don’t really like it. Do you have an insta or something I can chat with you about how the turbo feels I don’t really want to spend $1200 and find out I don’t like it.
@@ztheblacksmith sure dm @nick.leicht
@@nick7.3 cool, I sent you a dm
Do you have Instagram?
@@supermotoj9561 yessir @nick.leicht
