I put an eBay turbo on my 6.9 IDI Diesel

[@josephmclovin9763]

Well done kid! Funny how these IDIs are out living all the next gens. Ive got 2 now. I look forward to seeing your progress.

[@shadytreekustomz6268]

Yes they will be around for ever 😂

My 7.3 power stroke is still running strong. My buddies 6.9 and his 7.3 idi still chugging along

@@hondaxl250k0 how's the parts availability in comparison? I heard electrical modules for the 7.3 power stroke were getting hard to find

[@hondaxl250k0]

@@autismion nothing for the 7.3 power stroke is hard to find. Many people have parts in stock.

You gotta relocate the cdr valve. You most likely pressurizing your crank case.

[@shadytreekustomz6268]

Yes you are definitely right I have a new video posting soon of me installing some guages new cdr valve and fuel system

I hope in the future you weld that stuff up save you a lot of headaches but sweet rig man

[@AtomsForFuel]

Also thanks for being such a huge inspiration on this project. I’m using this video as an opportunity to teach myself and also to teach 2 younger guys along with me since they’re interested. Can you share your parts list for what you used to piece together that customers up pipe/cross over pipe assembly that you made? Thanks!

[@shadytreekustomz6268]

I’ll take a look if I have some today

@@shadytreekustomz6268 thanks, I’d really appreciate it

Its fun doing ebay turbo and chit but man, i hope afterwards you take the time to save this truck.

[@shadytreekustomz6268]

Yeah I do plan to build a new motor for it and swap it in a re wire and body the truck. Already started gathering parts from R&D for a build. The body is completely junk, frame is good, but I will rebody truck

[@Crazy_DodgeV10]

What size injectors did you put in?

[@AtomsForFuel]

Hey, I’m going to replicate exactly what you’ve done here for my Gen 1 Banks Turbo kit that I bought. Problem is that It didn’t come with the Y pipe Up pipe collector and so I’ve got to make that all myself! I was planning on using the stock n/a Y pipe and then doing the same U pipe that you did and then custom make that up pipe section that plugs into the turbo hot side. I’m buying a welder and learning how to weld for this and I’m thinking of picking up a stick welder but maybe flux core is better. What do you think?

[@shadytreekustomz6268]

It’s really hard to stick weld exhaust pipe. I tried it on this setup and had leaks, so I just went to the clamps and the exhaust sealer. It worked great I had no leaks from the up pipe, you could easily tell if it did with the amount of smoke it makes

[@shadytreekustomz6268]

A mig welder is needed for exhaust pipe though, I’d get one if you want to attempt to weld it

[@AtomsForFuel]

@@shadytreekustomz6268 awesome, will do. Thank you! I really appreciate the guidance.

[@chriswalker5729]

Something is not right. You should not have more smoke when adding air...

[@shadytreekustomz6268]

I wouldn’t say it’s more, it smoked a TON before the turbo haha, it definitely cleans up once you get the rpm’s up and the turbo spools though, I do think there’s also an air intrusion issue unfortunately

[@MegaGingerpimp]

If the engine moves on its mount bushings will the exhaust Crack because it's welded to the frame?

[@shadytreekustomz6268]

@@MegaGingerpimp I put a flexible pipe in the setup so it will flex with the l mount
