Product Details
This turbo kit is the ultimate choice for your 1994 - 2002 Dodge Ram with a 5.9L Cummins engine. It's a drop - in turbocharger that comes with everything you need for an easy install. The kit features a 63mm (2.48in) compressor wheel and an 80mm (3.15in) turbine wheel, with an A/R ratio of 0.80 and a flow rate of 79 Lb/min. It can reach an approximate 550hp, depending on your truck's configuration. With Borg Warner SX - E turbo options, you can expect even better performance. The SX - E turbos have a 360 thrust bearing, enhanced compressor wheel and housing, and a waste - gated design to mount on stock T3 manifolds. BD single turbo kits are a great bolt - on replacement for your OEM turbo, offering more power, better response, and higher reliability. The high - strength FMW Forged Milled Wheels are lighter and stronger, and can handle higher speeds. The heavy - sprung waste - gated T3 turbine housing and HD waste gate and bracket ensure stable boost and prevent over - speed damage. The turnbuckle boost control allows for easy adjustment for different altitudes and extreme tuning. The kit also includes a downpipe, V - band clamp, and band clamp. Note that a turbo mount exhaust brake cannot be installed with this kit; use a remote mount exhaust brake instead.
Using this turbo kit is a breeze. First, gather all the components included in the kit: the turbocharger, downpipe, V - band clamp, and band clamp. Make sure your 1994 - 2002 Dodge Ram with a 5.9L Cummins engine is turned off and cooled down. Then, follow the step - by - step instructions to remove the old OEM turbo and install this new kit. It's designed to be a drop - in replacement, so it should fit easily. When adjusting the boost, use the turnbuckle boost control. You can adjust it according to your truck's altitude and the tuning you want. Just turn it gently until you reach the desired setting. As for maintenance, regularly check the turbocharger for any signs of damage or wear. Look at the compressor and turbine wheels to make sure they are clean and not damaged. Keep the waste gate and bracket in good condition. Also, remember that you can't install a turbo mount exhaust brake with this kit. Always use a remote mount exhaust brake instead to avoid any issues with the turbo system.
