Turbo ID assistance...

[Caver Dave]

When explaining my tale of woe to a bud a few weekends ago... (truck basically good for 30-45 minutes of drive time until it needs to sit and cool down... diagnosed by several of you as crapping IP, and hoping to have $$ to fix it soon, but holidays are approaching )...

He tells me he has a freebie turbo that he's "pretty sure came from an IDI, cause it doesn't look like the stuff on any of the PSD's I've owned". Looks to be missing a few parts, but I'm willing to deal with "grafting" this (plumbing, etc.) *IF* it's close to anything worth a hoot.

Anyways, he sent me some pics that clearly show it's a Garret, but I thought the OEM/aftermarket ATS & Banks systems used a different brand compressor? Can anybody tell me if this will work? If not, any idea what application it's from?

Like a DT series engine? Any idea if it'd work on an IDI outside of the mounting & plumbing?

not DT its a power stroke turbo off of a T444E(internationals version of he power stroke).it wont even bolt on to an IDI without major modifactions.you will need to find a place to mount it,fab a pedistal,run oil feed/return lines to it.make up pipes/downpipe.then youre gonna need more fuel in order to spin it up.headstuds to handle the 40+PSI of boost it is capable of building.

Thanks bro!


I figured it was too good to be true! Though I'm due for goodness after the past few months of incredibly bad juju...

Some dude on the other site added a PSD turbo to his IDI, but 450 is right, its major modification time. How good are you at fabrication?
