 If you have done any reading about the 6.7L Powerstroke anywhere on the internet, you have probably read that the 2011-2014 year models, had a bad turbo from the factory. I see it everywhere, it's posted at least once an hour on various Facebook pages and groups, it's all over the powerstroke forums. 

The fact of the matter is, those year models have had record turbo failures compared to other Ford Diesels using different style turbos. Ultimately the turbo utilizes twin compressor wheels mounted back to back on the turbo shaft with only one turbine wheel. The failures are blamed on the fact that there's more weight on the front of the turbo shaft than the rear, and under extreme performance there's unbalance that causes the shaft to fail. 

We work on roughly 80 a trucks a week here at our shop, so we see a lot of carnage and we have a lot of hands on experience with these trucks. I personally have only seen maybe 20-30 of those turbo fail first hand. I believe the main issue causing them to fail is poor tuning practice. The majority of these turbos we've had to replace were running custom tunes, written by people I have never heard of. The reason I believe this to be true, in the early years we would replace the customer's failed turbo with a new one from Ford, same exact part that just failed, then I would get them a programmer that I knew was safe and proven, and we would never see them again! MAGIC! You see my point.

Some customer's don't just want their truck fixed though, a lot of us (me included) look at a factory failed part as the perfect opportunity to upgrade performance. For that group of people, this kit is the perfect fit. We've installed more than 50 of these kits for our customers and they love them. We have zero come backs, and this kit pairs well with the H&S Motorsports Dual Fuelers which will put you over 700 horse power with the proper tuning. 

We have performed extensive testing with BorgWarner's new SX-E line of turbochargers and they have proven to be a great match for the 6.7L Power Stroke engine. All SX-E turbo options include the .91 A/R divided (twin scroll) turbine housing and our turbocharger pedestal was redesigned to take full advantage of the twin-scroll design. The 73mm turbine wheel is larger than we are used to using, but the twin scroll design helps to retain the response and drive-ability in the lower RPM range. The benefits of the 73mm turbine wheel include lower drive pressure, lower EGTs, and more power! During our testing we experienced an average of a 200 degree drop in peak exhaust gas temperatures when compared to the factory turbocharger setup. Durability and reliability also play a big part in our parts selection and BorgWarner has stepped up their game with the 360-degree thrust bearing assembly that is standard in all SX-E units.

You may be aware that BorgWarner's new SX-E compressor housings are not currently offered with a 90-degree outlet option. No problem! As a solution, we CNC machine each SX-E compressor housing in-house to take advantage of the v-band outlet and supply a cast aluminum 90-degree elbow with v-band clamp. We felt that an aluminum elbow was necessary for this application since air temperatures are going to be the hottest right at the compressor discharge and a silicone boot would not be as reliable.

Turbocharger Options

We offer several different compressor wheel options with this kit: 
- 63mm Forged-Milled Compressor Wheel (575-625 WHP) 
- 64mm Forged-Milled Compressor Wheel (600-650 WHP) 
- 66mm Forged-Milled Compressor Wheel (650-700 WHP) 
- 69mm Forged-Milled Compressor Wheel (700-750 WHP) 
(All of the above options include the 73mm turbine wheel and .91 A/R divided turbine housing.)

Piping

All HSM piping is fabricated out of high quality steel and tig welded with amazing precision. We take pride in knowing that the fit and finish of every pipe will be at OEM quality or better. Piping is available in raw form (to be coated by you in the color/style of your choice), or you can pick to have it coated in a classy textured black finish as pictured above. Bungs are welded into place in convenient locations for connecting your water injection, nitrous, or any other 1/8" NPT accessory. Plugs are included if you choose to not use any of the supplied bungs. A two piece downpipe is included and will mate to most aftermarket exhaust systems using a ball flange just like the OEM downpipe. All piping is crafted here in the USA.

Cast Parts

You will be receiving 3 custom cast pieces with your HSM turbo kit (2 exhaust manifolds and 1 turbo pedestal). These parts were engineered and produced here in the USA using the best possible materials to ensure they will withstand the most extreme temperatures and pressures. Provisions in the exhaust manifolds for exhaust gas temperature sensors (factory sensor or 1/8" npt) are provided, as well as a location to install the OEM exhaust back pressure sensor. A wastegate port is also machined into the driver's side manifold and a block-off plate is included should you choose not to use this feature.

Wastegate Provision

The HSM driver's side exhaust manifold is machined to accept a wastegate. You may utilize our Universal 40MM Wastegate, but some fabrication may be required. We recommend cutting a hole into the downpipe and building a pipe to connect the wastegate outlet directly into the downpipe. You can also let the wastegate dump to atmosphere if you don't have any means of welding/fabricating.

Air Intake

No air filter provision is included in this kit. This product is engineered to fit with the OEM or S&B air intake box. If you are running something other than that, adjustments may be necessary to ensure correct fitment. Piping, rubber couplings, and hose clamps are included to route the OEM or S&B intake to the HSM turbocharger. The 4" air intake piping is designed to clear a dual high pressure fuel system, should you have one installed on your vehicle.

Conclusion

One look at our components and you'll understand why they are the best on the market. From the custom engineered castings to the full color detailed instruction manual, there was no expense spared during the development of this product. All parts are included with the kit to make installation as simple as possible.

Whether you're looking for a performance gain or just wanting something to replace the OEM unit, this kit is a great solution for you. It will make your 6.7L Power Stroke run like it is supposed to!
