Originally a 1.0 Ar cover, we changed it to a .70 Ar cover with redesigned map groove, anti surge ring, volute shape and style with modern turbo technology. The turbine housing was previously available in .84 and 1.0ar; both are inefficient when compared to modern turbos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe took inspiration from the latest turbochargers in the market and applied their turbine housing design , flow path, volute shape, and material density to come up with our own 0.91AR turbine housing. This turbine housing was proven to spool up faster And make more top end power when compared to either previous option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe KC300x is a reliable journal bearing drop in turbo perfect for increasing your 7.3 Powerstroke's performance.

This completely redesigned turbo eliminates the 2 outdated turbine housing options from the factory style turbos\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExhaust Brakes: We get asked a lot about exhaust brakes and if they work with our turbos. We have found that some brands have clearance issues and might cause the brake to hinder performance, rub the turbine wheel, or cause other issues. These brakes typically use some sort of flapper to close which causes extreme exhaust back pressure to aide in braking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis can be hard on a turbo and motor and is not recommended. It will be up to the customer to verify fitment and functionality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis turbo is designed to make the most of your power for your 7.3 powerstroke.
