I just got my KC Stage 2 63x73 .84AR today 😃 I can’t wait to put this puppy in. She’s Purdy!!! 😍 It’s also just got 180/30 FF Stage 1.5 Injectors, with the Hydra (Jelibuilt tune), 4” DP, to a 5” axle dump exhaust. Riff Raff FRX X-over.…Doing the v-covers, glow-plugs, and harness. Might do the HPOP or at least seals/gaskets... (Truck has 150k on it). Idk yet….depends on $ Also, probably going to go ahead and do the hutch mod and might upgrade the intercooler on my way too. (Idk how much that helps with the 7.3’s). Truck is a 02 F-250, Single Cab, long bed. 6 spd manual. I have lots of plans for her. Hopefully she has many years to go.
I have the stage3 1.0 with 205/80s and still on head bolts. It starts to spool at 2200 and makes serious steam. It’s perfect. I did put in a mild stall converter which helps get the turbo spinning faster.
This is very useful information For folks .. order just above stock to enjoy it the most ... I Accidentally Built Myself a Race Truck 😂😂...i love it... But you gotta be ready to go Down that Road ....Dont do it guys or girls unless you are Building just a weekend truck and Absolutely love these trucks with all you got 🙏 and have deep Pockets ;) Anyways...The kc300x stage 3 Turbo is a beast ... with 1.00 ar wheel it dosent Even light intill about 2800 Rpms with a zf6 and 300% injectors But when it Does light witch dosent take long and sounds amazing its a Blast from the past 😂💪 i Gotta beef up my Drive Train now 🤓
I have zf6 speed superduty and I bought the full stage 2 kit .84ar with up pipes , ebpv delete, 205/30. I ended up changing to a gtp38r with .84ar . The spool up is so much faster with Garrett not to mention the amazing turbo whistle.
Hey if you have a minute to chat about why you liked the gtp38r better I would really appreciate it I’m getting ready to buy injectors and turbo for my 2000 7.3
What about the guys who have a hydra chip, cold air and 5 inch turbo back exhaust. What's the best turbo option or just throw a aftermarket wheel on it?
I'd contact them. They can help with your ultimate goals and how you use your truck. My thoughts are stage 1 with the .84 though, as you get the benefit of the sxe style turbine. Call KC though, I'm just a random idiot on the internet...
Call our Customer service 480-688-7160 and they will ask you a few more questions to better understand what you use and plan on using your truck for. Then they will be able to give you the proper recomendation.
I have a 99 f350 7.3 dually and I’d like to add something to give it just a little more get up and go when merging on interstate but don’t want to do or spend a ton but also want a little more whistle what would you guys recommend?
Ok kind of what I was thinking I paid a grand for it no rust but rockers nowhere else really some old lady didn’t want it 201k miles and a set up for hauling has a toasted oil pan gasket not sure if was a decent deal I don’t know much in the diesel world. I’m thinking it was a decent deal
I ordered mine a year ago and got a stage 2 .84. I have minor upgrades and a Hydra stock sticks. I should have got the stage 1 after seeing this video. I have to wait to really hit on it to see the boost start. I was recommended from a rep at kc I'll be good with a stage 2 and if I want to upgrade injectors it will be better. Now I'm also seeing guys with 180/30 injectors still stick with a stage 1. I'm just dying to know what the difference would be with my setup in a stage 1
Often times when there is a delay in spool up, its due to a small boost or exhaust leak. Give us a call or shoot an email and our Customer service can help walk you through testing and fixing.
Just like the large turbo companies we source the best parts possible from around the world. Many turbo parts are not even available to purchase from any US manufacturers. So we source the highest quality parts from Japan, malasia, USA, china, germany, mexico, etc., then have strict quality control and then we build everything to order in our manufacturing facility in Arizona.

Excellent content! Thank you.
Very beneficial information. I do believe I will be buying a turbo from you when my 318K mile and climbing oem finally gives up
I have zf6 speed superduty and I bought the full stage 2 kit .84ar with up pipes , ebpv delete, 205/30. I ended up changing to a gtp38r with .84ar . The spool up is so much faster with Garrett not to mention the amazing turbo whistle.
Hey if you have a minute to chat about why you liked the gtp38r better I would really appreciate it I’m getting ready to buy injectors and turbo for my 2000 7.3
Are we going to see a compound kit for 7.3 powerstrokes any time soon? O.o
Thats some Gucci Chinesium. KC wants to corner a marketshare bolt on VGT for 7.3 would be it. Im sure the genius folks at KC have thought of this.
👍👍💪kc

Figures that a month after I ordered the 63/68 you guys come out with an updated version.
We have been shipping out the updated version for a couple months now, for this very reason! So rest assure, you have the Gen 2
@@KCTURBOS thanks fellas
Right on

Intake, 4 inch turbo back exhaust, hydra chip, hutch mod and intercooler if you don’t have one. BD up pipes. 😉

If we bring the truck to you can you check for leaks?@@KCTURBOS
Im new to 7.3 trucks. Will these be direct replacement on a 1997 truck also or just the newer 7.3 trucks
Yes, we have options for all 1994-97 Powerstroke trucks
So if it has the holes it's a Gen 2?
Correct sir!
@@KCTURBOS good. I bought my stage 1 back in October last year. It does have the holes around it so must be Gen 2. Thanks.
are these housings chinese based or?
