The KC Cummander will give you the power you need, while maintaining lower EGTs and keeping the super quick spool up provided by the VNT actuator.
EXHAUST BRAKES: We get asked a lot about exhaust brakes and if they work with our turbos, these will retain the OEM feature if the vehicles calibration allows and is setup for it. We have found that some brands have clearance issues and might cause the brake to hinder performance, rub the turbine wheel, or cause other issues. These brakes typically use some sort of flapper to close which causes extreme exhaust back pressure to aide in braking. This can be hard on a turbo and motor and is not recommended.
Not available for sale in the state of California.
Install Guide
Turbocharger Installation Best Practices
Proper installation helps prevent premature turbocharger failure. Inspect the oil, air, coolant, intake, and exhaust systems to make sure the new turbocharger has clean oil flow, proper airflow, and no restrictions or leaks.
Change Engine Oil & Oil Filter
Fresh oil and a new filter are required for every turbo installation.
Inspect or Replace Engine Air Filter & Intake Ducting
Make sure the intake system is clean and free of debris or restriction.
Inspect Oil Feed Line & Drain Line
Restricted, clogged, or contaminated oil lines can cause premature turbo failure.
Inspect any Applicable Coolant Lines
Water-cooled turbos require clean, unrestricted, leak-free coolant lines.
Check Intercooler & Exhaust Systems
Inspect hoses, clamps, intercooler piping, exhaust leaks, and foreign object damage. Oil residue in the intercooler or exhaust can indicate significant engine issues.
Prime Turbo Before Startup
Pre-lube the turbocharger and verify oil flow before normal engine operation.
Important:
Always follow the vehicle manufacturer’s service procedures. A replacement turbo can fail early if the original cause of failure is not corrected. Undiagnosed engine issues can lead to denied warranty claims.
