Hi, I am looking for some help and an education in SXE turbos to pick the correct one for me. My truck is a 1999 F450 chassis parts are e99 engine is late 99. Injectors are Swamps Stage 2 Split Shot. I do not plan to change them in the near future. ZF6 transmission. Rear end gears were swapped to 4.10.
I drive it empty, pull a fifth wheel toyhauler, and haul antique tractors. Truck and camper weigh 24k. Truck and tractors weigh 24k-30k.
I spoke with a few vendors and tuners. I was recommended the 366 with a 1.0 housing by most and a 366 with the .91 by 1.
I was also told to jump on this forum and read up on the 364.5. From what I see it seems like I would be happy with either a 364.5 (80x74mm turbine) or 366.
Overall I am happy with the truck and it is running well. I am looking to improve the efficiency of the turbo and make more power overall. I have tunes from a few tuners and seem to be good. Plan is to be able to tow in a hotter tune with similar or less egt's to what I have now.
Not really interested in the kc turbo. Almost bought it a few times and decided I would rather switch to a t4 mount. Still trying to decide between the CSD or Irate kit and welcome opinions or other ideas.
