This is a great turbo. I’ve had mine for 250k miles. Spools up quick and smooth and has way more top end. When I’m grabbing 4th 5th and 6th it hangs at 40psi real nice. I need a new to me truck, pretty sure I’ll get another 2nd gen and I’ll put another 3000 in it for sure.

Get a 3 rd Gen and life will be so much better !!!

Everybody is worried about the exhaust manifold preheating the oil have you ever open you hood up and see that bright red turbo and that is one hot baby !!

I might be interested in one of those for my old 12 valve . I just use it to tow with . Not a hot rod . I appreciate your video of your truck . I going to install a rebuilt g 56 in my truck to replace the 47rh . Thanks for the information .

This is what i needed, i have a s363 that leaks from the down pipe gonna pull it tomorrow and have a buddy machine it to fit a hx40 flange

I have the same setup with a automatic transmission love it for towing

I enjoy your videos they have helped me a lot. Do you have a video on removing the camshaft in order to replace the timing cover to block to replace both gaskets and crank seal. Thank you.

Just bought a 07 5.9 2500. Looking to upgrade everything. Love seeing videos. Gets me excited. Easy decision for me foing w ATS living in CO. But afte I drop the lift to a 3 inch lift from I think it's a 5 now. I intend to do manifold, turbo and intake at same time. Might get cold air intake sooner. Had new 5 inch straight pipe exhaust put on due to old one being cracked.

27:24 When you can screw a locknut on by hand it's no longer a locknut and needs to be replaced. They get worn out more quickly by using power tools on them.

It’s a great ideal to put oil line on the other side of turbo to get it away exhaust manifold just to help from preheating your oil in that line, just a easy thing to do.

Looks like a nice charger, I went with the Fleece Cheetah for my '02 3500. It just arrived here in Ukraine but I'm debating on whether I should install now or wait until I get the new manifold. I like the ATS manifold you installed on yours but it's tough having to wait 3 weeks for it to arrive especially when I have this turbo staring at me each day ). I'm trying to give Thoroughbred all my business and I have a lot to purchase. Soon I'll be ordering the head stud kit, FASS lift pump, straight pipe exhaust, and the Suncoast stage 3 47RE rebuild kit. My question is should I wait on the manifold or just go ahead and drop in the Cheetah??

I have the Fleece in tank twin gear motor pumps it works great .I get 21-22- at idle 18-19 hard pull and what’s neat one pump hooks to factory wire harness and you get a nice cable that has a sleeve on it for protection . That cable has a relay on it and a fuse so if one of the pumps quit working you still good to go because 10-11 psi is still better than stock and I put a gauge a long time ago to keep a eye pressure and when it went down to zero on hard pull and just at idle 5-6 lbs and make sure to fill out the warranty cad and send back for your lifetime warranty. So hope that helps. And I did mine on my garage floor with a floor Jack to hold tank up. And try to run you truck to get as much fuel out as you can. When you get the straps off you can spin it and see all the connections.

Where's the dyno on this install you said in the video are coming? Almost exactly the way my 01 is setup. Very courious what the HP was on this.

I need a straight shot answer. I tow alot. +20k on a daily basis. I need to know which turbo is absolutely the best when reliability and safe egts are priority but still need power to climb grades. This screaming 2nd or 3rd gear just doesnt sit well with me. Rv275 sticks right now but would upgrade if necessary. No tuning ive got your vp44 and still under warrenty. Obviously compounds are what i need and in my future plans. So what turbo should i upgrade too, and will it still be usable in a compound towing setup?
