I made mine for 3 bucks. Easy as shit. Kept the boost in mine under 10 to protect the engine. Runs 2-3 psi in the highway

Best thing I ever did to mine was the Heath waste gate control. It's easy to adjust if you get a bit more intake and exhaust flow.

@@ModifyGarage I didn't mean turning one up is the thing to do. I just had a slightly better air intake filter-wise. Just trying to make it cleaner burning. Removed that muffler too.....and it didn't do zip performance wise. Turns out it was wishful thinking. Well, it had worked for NA engines I'd had. Live and learn. If I could do it again I'd make the air intake hole larger and try to flow the air better. I'MO, the air cleaner to the side getting cooler air was the better setup. I know for certain cooler air makes more power, the very reason I wouldn't have an underhood aftermarket intake. Hot underhood air lessens power. Getting air through a hood scoop is ideal. It would flow better into the intake also. I did like the idea of the more efficient wheel on the turbo intake. I like the engines because they're smooth and quiet and don't leak oil. I have yet to race one and won't. .I had a 160 degree thermostat and that’s a good thing in Texas. We do get crazy cold at times but Amsoil premium synthetic keeps everything flowing. I think there's a better water pump available now.

I had a couple 6.5s they were good for the most part but i was running it in 2500s and i got a bigger trl so instead of 7k trl i am now 13k for trl wieght. I got a bigger trk a f350 7.3ps. Im running an edge tuner on it. My trk is a 4x4 cab n chassis dually with an 11ft flatbed right now best i get is 12.5 and with trl 8.3 ish but im 22k gross. I want new injectors on my 7.3ps but they aint cheap. I love the way the old deisels sound unlike the new ones you cant tell its a deisel. My 7.3 id say is a lot better in the cold. I cant plug mine in easily at all but no need it will start my 6.5 had to be plugged in about 15°f or wouldnt start

Just a comment, the 6.2 really doesn't exist out there unless the truck is totally original. As early as 1997 most rebuilders sent a 6.5 out when a 6.2 came in, the engine shop simply installed and replaced all the pieces that came off the 6.2.. Not calling anyone wrong, just something to check. Esp. if you ordered 6.2 parts and they don't quite look right.
