2003 6.0 Powerstroke 10 Blade Turbine Wheel and Housing

Leave a reply

This is a 2003 6.0 Powerstroke turbine housing upgrade made to fit a 2004.5 -2007 6.0 Powerstroke engine

The internals of this turbine housing is the same as a 2003 6.0 Powerstroke Gt37vas turbine housing. Included are the following:

10 blade Gt37vas 66.4 x 72mm turbine

15mm wide 2003 vanes (2004.5-2007 have 13.2mm vanes)

2004.5-2007 Powerstroke turbine housing machined for 2003 vanes and turbine wheel

New Unison ring

This is an upgraded turbine housing machined to fit 2004.5 -2007 Gt37vas turbochargers as an upgrade. The turbine upgrade will whistle like a 2003 turbocharger because the internals are identical to the 2003 turbine housing, but the casting (outer shell) is a the same as a 2004.5 -2007 turbine housing. Buying this housing is a great way to restore the tolerances on your factory turbo charger to increase performance and help the factory turbo perform like new again.

Please keep in mind that the 2003 – 2004 6.0 Powerstroke turbo chargers also had 59 mm compressor wheel and matching housings, the 2005-2007 6.0 Powerstroke have 56 mm compressor wheel and compressor housing and originally have a 64 mm turbine wheel / wheel (exhaust wheel). We have 63.5 x 88 billet compressor wheel and housing upgrade kits available here.

6.0 Powerstroke Unison Ring

The 6.0 Powerstroke unison ring can wear out and need replacement. In this previous post I explained the 6.0 powerstroke VGT problems and shared how to fix them. If the problem is ignored, the unison ring can wear out as well as the vgt arm. Here is a replacement unison ring:

6.0 Powerstroke VGT Problems

2 Replies

The 6.0 Powerstroke turbo have problems with the factory VGT turbo. The bearing housing and turbo housing commonly rust, which traps the VGT system unison ring. The rust will expand and make the nozzle ring difficult to move. When the unison ring stops moving the vehicle will be very difficult for it to make boost at lower rpm or higher rpm depending on the position that the nozzle ring is stuck in. This is an easy fix with the proper tools. I used a media blaster to remove all of the rust, there are also chemicals that are used to remove rust that work well. I use the media blaster and pressure was the bearing housing very well. There are a lot of oil passages on the 6.0 turbo so it is very important to clean the bearing housing very well if it is blasted. If you dont feel comfortable blasting turbo I suggest buying a new turbo here.

After I remove the rust, i paint the surface to prevent rust from coming back to cause problems. Rust is the cause of the problem, if you can prevent the bearing housing from rusting, the life of the turbo is dramatically increased. If the vehicle is continued to operated with the unison ring trapped, the VGT arm and the unison will wear out as a result causing the need for replacement. Here you can find a replacement unison ring.
